So, as useful as I find the old forum, a lot of the information is scattered and fragmented among many different posts.
In the interest of consolidating info, I'm hoping to post all my questions about this fan in the same thread. Hopefully it will be a useful resource to someone other than myself down the road.
That said, initial questions:
-what was the original cord from motor to switch, and switch to plug? Was it black overbraid?
-my readings for the motor are 23.4 ohms. Proper readings?
-between high and low on the choke is 1.3 ohms. Correct?
If you have this fan in original condition, please share photos.
Thanks everyone...
