ALWAYS replace the motor capacitor in the control box as a first step when a rotor has tuning issues.

I have one that's behaving strangely.
Sometimes it will turn one way, sometimes both.  Sometimes completely normally.
Sometimes it slows/sticks if I go beyond East, turning clockwise.
I can't find anything wrong electrically, so am thinking the bearings are going.


Is there anyone servicing these besides Norm?
Have others seen these symptoms?
Any relevant advice appreciated,
Wilson
