[QUOTE="Moneybox, post: 658496, member: 3960"] Yes Simmo that's what would work if these motors had a centrifugal switch. They are out of washing machines and I don't think the switch is in these motors at all. The best way to find out will be to pull the smoked one apart. It's already lying there with the cable snipped off so I'll open it up. The switch works a bit like a centrifugal clutch on a chainsaw, the weights just throw out and break the circuit. You hear them come back as a motor slows to stop there's usually a distinct click. That's not there on these motors. [/QUOTE]
