I have a G26q3/4-100-6 and the blower just hums and doesn't run. Any suggestions? The blower turns freely when the furance is off but when I turn it on the motor hums and I can't turn the blower.

Remove power to your furnace, allow 5 minutes for your cap to bleed down, replace your capacitor. Match microfarad and voltage. My example is a 5 microfarad 370VAC, but your cap will probably be between 7.5 and 40 microfarad.


"Tip of the Day" Remember to remove power first.
