How to overhaul the capacitor of the water pump?

If the capacitor is damaged, the pump will not work normally.
The motor will not turn and make a humming sound.
This article will introduce how to overhaul the capacitor of the water pump.

1.How to know the capacitance value ?

We can obtain the capacitance value of the water pump in two ways:
Method ①. You can directly see the nameplate of the pump.
Method ②. Disassemble the water pump and take out the capacitor to directly look at the value marked on the capacitor.

Method ①. We can see 10μF on the nameplate
Method ②. We can see 10μF on the capacitor
WARNING

There is a risk of electric shock when the capacitor is removed from the motor when it just stops running.

2.How to measure the capacitance value ?
①. Adjust the multimeter to the capacitance test position
②. Adjust the multimeter to the capacitance test position
