Also on a compressor, a Husky. Seems that to prevent the motor from burning up, they put a permanent fuse, buried in the windings. But they have no listing for the fuse, the only part available is the whole motor.pum,p combo. So what does the fuse protect beside their bottom line? Husky is a "Bohica" customer service company. Cheaper than a reset, for Husky. Not so cheap for the customer that now needs to buy the whole schlamozle because he overheated it for one minute and the fuse blew- to protect the motor. Which needs to be replaced anyhow.
Worked out good for me- a neighbor gave it to me. I trouble shot and fixed it, then sold it back to him for $50. I didn't need the POS. Or any Husky. Ever.
