Thanks! but it dose not state what volatage it is
What is the link you provided above about cleaning out the filter every 6 months mean?September 3, 2025 at 9:28 pm #493647kwatt
KeymasterYou’d need to ask the guys in the store, I don’t have that info.
That is just a thing about hood filters, unrelated.

Moderatormost of these motors are 240v but not all but its a very small amount
the output shaft changes from unit to unit

I do not remember what the voltage was when i tested the plug onto the motor, but i think some thing like 40V and defo not 240V

Moderatorif its 40v you have no real chance of getting a new motor
even if its 240v AC it may be difficult as these motors maybe common but the output shaft can change between models. I get round it by keeping used motors to allow me to strip them and swop the internal parts
suggest you measure the voltage again and see what you get

Before n=reading your post!

Moderatorok
what arrived today , i assume a new motor , where did you obtain it from ? and did it give a voltage ?
you will never turn these by hand as its geared insideDave

well it would not turn when connected to the electric plug either

Participantif my plug is putting out 40V and the motor is a 240V motor, then I guess it wont turn!

Moderatorcorrect
did you check the coil of the old motor ?
is it open circuitjust trying to work out if its an electrical or mechanical problem

From memory it was 40V. But I will check it again later on
Is the voltage the only differance in that one and the one I just bought from the “white goods” shop?If its the voltage being an issue, then can i just find a 240v supply from the microwave somewhere ells? and wire the plug from the motor to it? (presuming that the rest of the microwave runs on 240v)
