Ceiling Fan Capacitor
have an outdoor ceiling that has failed and want to switch out the capacitor and pull chain switch. I have searched anywhere and everywhere I know to look. It appears they no longer manufacturer this particular capacitor.
It is a CBB61 with two orange 600v wires on the one side and on the other side it has:
Yellow @250V 5uF
Purple @250V 5uF
Red .@ 300V 4.5uF
Is there anything that I can safely use to get the fan working working and can you
Point me in a direction to find get one?
Sure appreciate any assistance I can get.

It might not make a flip of difference but that one that is pictured has the gray coded wires on the left 2 and the original one the wires are orange. My understanding with the capacitors it does make a difference.
Also the wires on the right side are in a different position making the 4.5uF leg the first leg instead of the third leg. All three are on Amazon are the same voltage instead of the one leg being 300V and the first two being 250V.
And it may be perfectly fine but I would know enough to make the call. Hoping maybe you or someone might be able to enlighten me one way or the other.
Thank you for the interest
