Our fan is not working like it's supposed to. When we turn the heat on the blower will not kick on by itself, but the hubby can spin the fan manually and it turns on and blows. I'm really hoping it's not an expensive fix and that we can possibly do it ourselves. Any idea what the problem might be?It does not work with the AC either. Model is E2EB-015HR. Thanks!

Is there a capacitor wired onto that motor? Look for 2 brown wires going to a small silver or white cannister. If so, it's most likely that capacitor is bad. Replace it.

We went and bought a new capacitor today, installed it and it worked like a charm. The old one was busted on the bottom and had gray stuff leaking out. Thank you so much for the help! :D
