Hi,
I am an electronics virgin as such, I am wanting to get into it and have bought a couple of books and some simple projects that I want to start.
My problem is twofold, my missus left the mower in the garden uncovered and after i stripped out the switching mechanism one of the wires into the capacitor has rotted completely.
It is a yellow rectangular one and it says MEX-X2 MKP, 0.22uf with (what I assume to be) a voltage rating of ~40;85/21 280v~, it has EN132400 on it and is stamped with X8 on the narrow edge.
I want to know if anyone can advise me where I can get a replacement one from and the best plac etc buy electronics components from? or alternatively is there another that will be suitable without the exact same spec for the mower?
i had a look on ebay and found this item 130301050310 but im afraid I dont know if it would be suitable.
Any advice on sources for reference, buying components and anything else related to electronics, thanks
TIA
