Our shark vacuum cleaner also had a rattling noise and found the same capacitor loose inside the cleaning head. It was removed and seems to still work ok. Is there any risk with not having this capacitor back inplace?

My wife encourages me to test as many household appliances as possible, whether they need repairing or not!!

I've been collecting multimeters for many years, both old and new. This NCV feature is fairly common on most now, especially those coming out of China. It is used for AC voltage, but up until now, I didn't think it had too much value, but because of what Paris said, I'll be trying out the 'old broken wire in the cable' trick!

Never heard about the NCV (non contact voltage detection) function on common DMM's before though. None of my standard meters have that but I do have one of those special current mini-clamp meters that measures flowing current up to 400A (AC and DC).

Can you show us how you do this for different type of cables?

Thanks in advance

Hey Lee,
My wife was convinced that I would have to do thorough testing and kept pointing to the rest of the house.
I felt sure that 'testing' the lounge was enough of a road test to prove it had been repaired!
