Replaces / Cross-Reference Part Numbers

  • Direct replacement for CBB61 capacitors with matching 4.5uF/5uF/5uF specifications.
  • Can substitute for 5-wire capacitors with similar capacitance ratings; verify your fan's requirements.

Compatibility & Fitment

  • Designed for single-phase motors in ceiling fans and other small motor applications.
  • Fits many ceiling fans, including models from brands like Harbor Breeze, that use a 5-wire CBB61 capacitor.
  • Ensure the physical dimensions and electrical specifications match your original part before ordering.

When to Replace

  • Ceiling fan blades do not spin, but the motor hums.
  • Fan speeds are slow or do not change correctly.
  • The fan requires a manual push to start rotating.
  • The original capacitor shows physical damage, such as bulging, cracking, or leaking fluid.

Installation Tips

  • Disconnect all power to the ceiling fan at the circuit breaker or fuse box before beginning work.
  • Photograph or diagram the original wiring configuration before disconnecting the old capacitor.
  • Match the wires of the new capacitor to the corresponding connections of the old unit.
  • Ensure all wire connections are secure before restoring power.
  • It is recommended to consult a qualified electrician if you are unsure about the installation process.

FAQ

A failing capacitor is the most common cause for a ceiling fan that hums but won't start, starts very slowly, or fails to change speeds when you pull the chain or use the wall control. If you have to give the blades a manual push to get them moving, the capacitor is likely no longer providing the necessary torque to the motor.
It is critical to match the uF ratings as closely as possible to your original unit. Using a capacitor with significantly different ratings can cause the fan motor to overheat, run at the wrong speeds, or potentially damage the motor windings. This unit is specifically rated for 4.5uF + 5uF + 5uF configurations.
Installation is generally straightforward and takes about 15 to 30 minutes. You will need a screwdriver to access the fan housing and wire nuts to secure the connections. Always turn off the power at the circuit breaker before beginning. Since this is a 5-wire unit, it is helpful to label or photograph your existing wiring configuration before disconnecting the old capacitor to ensure the new one is wired exactly the same way.
No, CBB61 capacitors are non-polarized, meaning they do not have a positive or negative side. However, you must ensure that each wire is connected to the correct corresponding circuit within your fan to maintain the proper speed control settings.
If the fan remains unresponsive after installing the new capacitor, check the pull chain switch for continuity, as these often fail alongside capacitors. Additionally, inspect the motor for any signs of burnt wiring or seized bearings that might prevent the fan from spinning even with a functional capacitor.
