Blower motor won't start by itself
Well second year in row this is happening with my furnace. Last year it seemed that the blower motor had overheated so I turned down the thermostat, took of the access door for the blower motor and just let it cool of for about 20 minutes. It seemed to work perfectly after that.
This year, the motor doesn't want to turn by itself. It doesn't seem warm or as hot as it was last year. I can hear a gentle hum, like it wants to turn, but nothing happens. I kind of give it a kick-start (meaning I turn the drum with a wooden spoon) and then it will turn on and blow just fine for that time. There isn't any risistance when I turn the drum, it doesn't make any funny noises, no squeeks, nothing, just that it doesn't want to work. |

My Lennox G8 blower/fan motor sometimes fails to start. When it does this it makes a humming noise. If I bump it or help it by turning the pulley it will start. I was thinking the start capacitor? Am I close maybe? It's a newer motor. Any ideas? Thanks!
I have a airtemp probably 70's model we had to replace the blower motor about two years ago. Now when the fan is supposed to start it either won't start or is very slow to start. When this happens you can manually move the squirrel cage and it runs great through the complete cycle. We just replaced...
