AC Capacitor

Posted on August 30, 2012 by admin

August of 2012 my air conditioner stopped working. Over time it took longer and longer for the fan to start turning. Eventually the only way to get the motor to start was by spinning the fan manually. I was able to determine it was the start up capacitor for the motor and only a $10 fix. If you have no electrical experience I wouldn’t suggest trying this yourself as the capacitor can still hold a strong charge and should be discharged first.
