Ok thanks, can anybody provide me with a link please as to the best place to buy it? Thanks.

ok somewhere on it ( not in pics) is the value in uF and a voltage

will need both to get correct one

If it’s the same as the board that [USER=”2″]kwatt[/USER] mentioned in post #9 then it’s 3300uF 25V 105C.
If that’s correct then this should do the job – https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/284555204050
Note the polarity when replacing as these are polarity sensitive.

Ok, many thanks. Just to double to check that the replacement C1 needs to be soldered? Thanks.

Ok many thanks for your advice. Once I’ve tried replacing the capacitor, I’ll post an update.

Hi all

Just to confirm that replacing the C1 capacitor has resolved the issue and the cooker hood is now working! ​​​Thank you!

I’m now left with a Cooker capacitor that I don’t need and I’m unable to return. Is it possible to advertise an item to sell on this forum?

Many thanks.

Good news – thanks for letting us know. 🙂

[electrofix]
