Sorry I even spoke, obviously a lot of ---- sparks out there :rolleyes:
The capacitor has died, on startup it stores a charge which looks like a low voltage on one set of windings.
That makes sure the motor runs in one direction only at startup.
The resistor (looks about 47 meg ohms) is there to drain the charge when the motor is not running.
Make sure to replace it
