Hi guys, first time poster here. I have an electric cement mixer which has decided to do no more mixing. It seems dead although checking contacts with a screwdriver, the neon light lights up, so electricity is getting around. Opening it up there is really nothing inside. A motor, a switch and a capacitor. The switch contacts seem clean. I was wondering if it could be the capacitor. Would that be likely ( do they blow often)? and if so do my symptoms sound like a capacitor has expired?
Thanks for all help forth coming.
