>Maybe. To properly excite an induction motor requires proper selection
and/or use of any one or more of the following procedures:

1. Sometimes a hammer works good (when a hefty kick doesn't) on electrical
appliances....works good on my washing machine when it stops in mid cycle
anyway.

2. Connect a 240 volt line to a 10:1 step up transformer. Connect the
output to the motor thru some big fuses (to provide a safety factor)

3. When using an inverter, be sure to turn the motor upside down as well.
The electricity has to enter the motor "right side up" relative to the
motor.

4. Connecting a counterbalance weight off center of the motor shaft usually
works wonders...that motor will sit there and vibrate all day long...until
something gives way.

5. If none of the above works ...call in a technician...Joe for instance?

:) Have a nice holiday ya'll....and don't take EVERYTHING to seriously.
