Default Re: Ferrograph Reel Expert Help Please!

Glad you were able to sort the stop switch out.
A capacitor that can give problems is the suppressor across the motor start switch contacts. It is actually soldered across the switch so is easy to find under the deck plate. If this fails it can short and the motors remain energised. Some versions have two motor switches. May be worth checking this out?
