    Looks like a crabtree board. Don't like them either but have used and bored out 40mm hole in centre underside, where larger knockout is. Fixed in a nylon gland where bung had 2 holes for tails and 1 for earth. Ask wholesaler for these glands and they can get them

    Cooker Hood Problem

    Hi The motor is a direct replacement for the old one so am unsure why it wouldn't work.I agree, I would have advised a new cooker hood had customer not already bought controller which sent us down this path.

    Yes, controller provides the speed control to the motor across the 3 windings, 3 different resistances measured. I think it was something like, 58 ohms, 118, and 165 ohms. This indicates all windings have same resistance but are supplied at different intervals via the controller I think.

    Cooker Hood Problem

    Hi Wilko The controller and motor are both new now. The fuse is in a plug which plugs into a socket in the roof space directly above cooker hood, which has not blown. At present its in bits where I can bench test. Just doesnt work. The only thing which works via the controller is the lights...

    Cooker Hood Problem

    Hi - The fuse which blew was a 3A. I said earlier it was a Fused spur but it was a plug and socket so the 3A fuse was in plug. I replaced and this never blew again. The lights work via the controller. The controller also provides speed control. 3 output speeds. The windings of the motor seem...

    Cooker Hood Problem

    Hi Westward. I had power to controller ....not connected to motor, and all switches fire there outputs which suggest no internal fuse problems with the controller. It's a new motor and controller so can't think of anywhere else that would have a fuse blown. The original problem was a blown fuse...

    Cooker Hood Problem

    Yes totally correct. Can't agree more. The customer is a friend so he knows the score. If he had only asked first before he'd bought new controller but I think he had asked someone and they had said "ah that must be a controller issue... we have one for £45". Along those lines anyway. Never...

    Not had much to do with cooker hoods but as I can see, when problems start better off with a new one. Cheers

    Cooker Hood Problem

    Hi....Agreed, I did suggest that at the time but the customer had already went and bought controller and had it out of packaging so he had started going down the path which has led to this. Controller was £45 and Motor was £70. New cooker hood...£250-£300 I think. I am sure I will get it to...
