The only name on my fan is on the chain pull. It says hampton bay but they doesn't mean that is what it is. The model number is m52-5b/4L. I can't find it on the internet that verifies the mfg. I need a 5 wire capacitor that has the number on it ( cbb61 ). All the cc61 I find on the internet have 2 or 3 wires. Any help please. Thanks

Does it run and hum or not run and hum?

Just hums. It hums at a different hum when the chain is pulled to change speed.

Do the blades spin freely by hand?

If so:

Call Hampton Bay and confirm that model number is theirs. Then order a replacement capacitor.
