Hover compact 330 will not work even though I’ve just replaced the switch and Capacitor.
I replaced the switch and capacitor, the lawnmower ran perfectly when I tested it, put it all back together only to find it won’t now run. Checked everything, no loose connections, no burning smell or buzzing.

- Had exactly the same problem. Found out it was caused by a broken retaining spring to one of the motor brushes. Tried to obtain a replacement to no avail so cannibalised an old spring from a defunct motor and fabricated it to fit. Mower now working fine.

Use a meter to check continuity from the plug to the motor. If the motor measures high resistance then that would be the fault.
