Motor not sealed well and shorts out.
I’m getting ready to install my third one. They are NOT reliable or durable but they do fit in small places. The motor is not sealed well and they burn up and short out within a year. Very frustrating as they’re not cheap and often hard to get to in small cramped spaces.
I would not recommend them and / or I recommend you always have a spare.
