Doubts in old washing machine motors capacitors
Hi xmars20
As a first half, it looks very bad taste when you write a question in capital letters, that denotes as if you were screaming, it is only a recommendation for your successive questions.
With respect to the capacitor, to determine if a capacitor is devalued, it would be necessary to measure with a capacitometer, usually it has a tolerance of +/- 5% above or below its value.
If a smaller micro faradium capacitor is placed, the motor may work with difficulty.

hello if sorry I had the active key lock and I did not realize I wrote so fast thank you for answering if I had that question if I could burn the board because now I will have to go to the customer's house and measure the engine consumption and check the capacitor so that it does not have future problems but the doubt I had was that if it was devalued it could burn the plate since the motor would work with difficulty
Another thing I was testing a 6-wire old aurora motor testing only direct motor and the consumption it gives me in the wash is 0.93 amper in both directions this would be ok the washing and the centrifuge consumes me for a side 1.35 A and for the other sense 4.60 A. In this case would it be wrong?
Dear, normally a capacitor is fine, if the margin of variation is 5% of its nominal value.
When an engine is well, the consumption in both directions of washing must be equal.
In centrifugation, the consumption is different when it rotates in one direction or another, because there are differentiated the starter and work coils, since the rotation is always in only one direction. Regards
