The fan motor on my Hanari DH202 dehumidifier has stopped turning correctly, it fails to start when first switched on then after a short delay it start turning but in the wrong direction. If spun by hand (using a wooden skewer to fit between the slats) it will fire up and run perfectly - any ideas what the problem is

If the motor uses a capacitor to start and run, this may have failed. SHould be easy enough to replace with a similar value
