me and my dad just opened up our busted vacuum system and found the problem to be in this little green guy.
can anyone tell me what this is? i guessed this is an resistor but realized almost all resistors have those color strips on them. on the center, it says "LF7A" and nothing else...
can anyone tell me more about this and where can i get replacement?

thank you very much

Perhaps a 7 amp fuse? The "LF" looks like a manufacturer's symbol. How did you figure out that thing was the problem? If it's a fuse, you could jump the location and see if it works. (Of course, replace the jumper with a 7A fuse eventually.)

that would be my advise. solder some hookup wire (or glue a paper clip) across where that thing used to go.

it'll either work or it won't.

thanx for the advice, i did connect the wires and it does work, so im very sure this is the problem, but there's always a reason for everything...im sure they didnt add this in there jusr for fun
