Ceiling fan: Do you need the exact same value capacitors when swapping an old one.

Tue, 09 Jun 2026 10:40:46 -0700

I'm looking to change of the capacitors on my fan but I could only find one's that are almost similar in rating. Is it okay to use the capacitors from this seller:

Here's the PCB of my fan:

As you can see some of the caps provided by the seller has similar voltage but different uF and vice versa. Should I keep looking for capacitors with the exact rating or is it okay to have some slight difference in rating?
