Fan capacitor c61 where to buy - Hampton Bay 54 In. 5-Blade Fan, Chestnut, Autumn Mist

two different items one is a switch and you are looking for a capacitor ( two wires )
if it is a capacitor that you want all you will need is the voltage and the uf or mf reading
one is the voltage that it can operate at and the other is the capacitance value of the capacitor for the motor
so for example--- the printing will read like 300 volts --- 15uf
and you will need around the same size to fit in place of the other one
e-bay will sell them

You posted it, 4.7uF 250 VAC. Any heating air conditioning company would have it.

you need something like this from amazon or ebay. do a search. Otherwise go to Tandy store if there is one close to your area. good luck.

Buy cheap multimeter from hardware to test the wires.

Try the link below. Without having the UF (electrical size of the capacitor) it is hard to source exactly your capacitor. This one below should work.

I know this is old, but I figure I'll help anyone who, like me, runs across this.

The C61 part is the run capacitor. If the fan hums gently when power is applied, and runs when you manually start it, then this capacitor is fine, and it is the start capacitor (which is part of the reverse module, the A7067B part) that is bad.

If there is no fan hum or anything when you apply power, and spinning it manually does not help, then the whole assembly (from the connector down, including the reverse module and run capacitor) should be replaced.

I have a 3 wire 1.8 uf and 2.7 uf fan capacitor. Mfg suggests to replace with 3 wire 4 uf and 5 uf. What will this do ? Any harm.

Hi, replacement capacitor can be found at amazon. Take a look here: Amazon com c61 capacitor 4 wire. I hope this was helpful. cheers

If you can find the exact fan at Home Depot, purchase it and return the lemon that you have. I cannot find a hampton bay website. Home Depot apparently buys these directly from overseas manufacturers, so there is no "company" to contact for real support. I had no luck finding my capacitor C61 E185116. Stick with the big names like Hunter in the future. Believe it or not, I received a free trim ring for mine about five years after purchase because it kept falling onto the body. Now that is world-class support!

Either take it to a motor shop or you can get one from Grainger.com. Get the micro farad rating (uF) on the cap and the voltage rating.
