Signs of a Malfunctioning Electric Motor

So your electric motors don’t break beyond repair, you must be able to identify the signs of a electric motor in need of new parts.

• Running Hot
  • The components of an electric motor are designed to function without causing too much friction. This is due to the use of bearings. If you notice an electric motor running hot, the bearings may have worn out or are not being properly lubricated.
• Sparking
  • When you start to see sparks fly out from an electric motor, there is a problem. Often, this means the motor brushes need replacing. Additionally, a burned commutator can be the source of the problem.
• Shuts Off Suddenly
  • It can be dangerous if an electric motor shuts off without warning. The source of this problem is likely in the wiring or electricity being fed to the machine. Sometimes, switches can be worn and accidently shut off power to the motor.
• Vibrations
  • A motor will vibrate, but never too much. If you notice excessive vibrations, it can be host to any number of problems. Loose screws and bolts can cause this issue, as well as a misaligned rotor.
