Great videos I have csi 85 with a fault on central heating only , the hot water is fine when initiated. but when heating is called on it just keeps firing up cutting off ?? Any ideas
I fail to see how a stiff bearing has ANY relationship to the resistance of the motor "coil winding" ? Surely - coil resistance is purely a function of the coil itself - ie - the number of turns of copper wire in the coil ( assuming it is copper) - ie length of winding for a given wire cross sectional area - under normal / correct circumstances ( ignoring temperature) Possible coil failure modes would be : shorted turns in the coil winding ( due to aging / breakdown of the enamel insulation of the copper winding wire / mechanical damage) which would "partially lower" the resistance - and cause "excessive coil current" when alternating current is applied during operation - due to the induced current effect into those shorted turns - and cause subsequent overheating of the coil and almost certainly cause eventual total breakdown of the whole winding ( ie "terminal failure" ) Quite difficult perhaps to spot this by just measuring resistance on its own - as shorted turns across say an adjacent layer of coil winding as might happen -would only produce a small reduction in resistance . Measuring INDUCTANCE of the coil however would show up due to the induced current effect in the shorted turns . So - moral is : measure resistance AND inductance !! Or - high resistance due to breaks in the winding ( most likely measure as very high resistance or open circuit) or poor / damaged coil terminations. in either case - the motor is unlikely to run at all in this case ( unlike the shorted turns scenario above) Either way - totally independent of the mechanical constraints of the motor shaft ease of rotation ?
Brilliant person you are Mr John Wilsons , many thanks for your videos
Good trainer, can't beat enthusiasm
Very clear demonstration. Thank you.
Excellent video John.Keep them coming please
great videos - even just for entertainment purposes.... are you still with us John?
Brilliantly explained... Cheers
Superb video
Great Video, quick question - the fan that doesn't spin freely, is that shot & needs replacing?
Great videos

Love the vids keep them coming
Hello John Would you please make a video of MODULATING FAN (multi-Speed) who got separate pcb fitted on them. Thanks

I have a ten year old potterton boiler you can hear the boiler ticking as if to re ignite but the it won't fan fault. What to do
