Motor thermal cut-out
« on: 16, January, 2014 - 14:02:16 »
Has anybody got a spare thermal cut-out mounting clip/bracket for attaching to the motor body please? My cut-out is diamond shaped, the case is silver on top with blue & black paint stripes & the case is blue underneath. There is writing on the case but I would have to remove what seems to be heat shrink around the switch. The two orange wires go to this and the motor runs when connected to x6 pins 4 & 5 in the control box.
Is this switch original and the same as you all have? Any close-ups of the switch and mounting please?
thank you in advance.

Thanks Marty, your a hero again. That'e exactly like mine. Now I just need to source the clip. I'm surprised it gets the contact temperature with heatsink between it and the case.
