Hello technicians and electricians
I assume many here know what type of gadget I am referring to here? It is a coffee whisker operating on
2 AA batteries to make coffee with foam and save you time whisking with spoon. It is also more effective because it dissolves coffee and sugar better than it is stirring with spoon.
So after using it for half a year, mine suddenly became very slow at rotating. Replaced batteries but nothing changed. After a few days the motor stopped working at all and became somewhat hot so I decided to disassemble.
I have attached picture on the bottom for you to see and you can tell from picture that some parts of wires have melted. What I noticed is that as soon as I connect
cable 2 to
contact 2 (middle one) with rocker pressed on, the wire gets hot and smoke starts to show. Same consition can be achieved when connecting
cable 2 to left contact of motor (I didn't mark that spot on picture).
What do you think is the problem? Is motor shortening or dead? Fixing things is my passion, therefore I rather fix than buy new.
