Motor Capacitors
Motor capacitors are not only for noise reduction, but also to protect the motor from arcing and also act as spark suppressors. They prolong the life of the motor.
The problem is when it is not possible to obtain such motor capacitors. Yes it is possible in many cases to cut away and remove this, but as a sewing machine technician, I want to get the machine in the condition it was when it was new and had such a capacitor.

I make 5 different types of motor capacitors:
Type 1: It is round and fits the BERNINA 530 / 530-2 and 730. In addition, it fits several older elna and Singer machines.
Type 2: It is "kind of" oval and fits the BERNINA 600 and 700 machines
Type 2.2: Same shape as Type 2 but have a "bleed" resistor and connectors for the BERNINA 707-708, 801-807 and 830
Type 3: This is for soldering on the PCB on the PFAFF 1222
Type 4: You can use this on several Husqvarna 2000 models, but also on other models and pedals.
