Hello Everyone! We Hope All of You Have A Happy, Healthful & Prosperous 2012!
Capacitor failures are a major problem that I see every summer and winter in our 22 year old HVAC business!
Symptoms: If you have a bad capacitor your outdoor condensing unit's fan will not run, the compressor may not run, or both the compressor and the fan may not run. If you have a capacitor problem your indoor blower motor may not run. Please read below for more troubleshooting. Thanks!

Troubleshooting Section:
Yes, capacitor problems are probably
the second most common problem that I see every summer in our 22 year HVAC business. I have heard about lots of price gouging with this simple problem.
What to look for when a capacitor is bad: The Air conditioner outdoor unit will not come on. Either the outdoor fan does not run, the compressor does not run, or both the fan and the compressor do not run. You checked and reset your breaker and the outdoor unit still does not come on. You can here a little humming sound inside the unit which is the low voltage contactor humming. You pull the disconnect and disconnect the power to your outdoor air conditioning unit. Please make sure your electrical power is off before working on any air conditioning equipment. You take the door or cover off your outdoor unit's control box and find a bad, swollen run capacitor. EPA stopped allowing manufacturers to produce capacitors with cancer causing PCB's. Since they stopped allowing the use of PCB's the capacitors now have a shelf life. Many times I see capacitor problems that will not allow the compressor or the fan to come on. Many times you can clearly see that the capacitor is bad because it is swollen or even blown apart with capacitor oil everywhere!
Sometimes you need a special meter to test the microfarad (MFD) or UF rating.
A capacitor tester. We sell a capacitor tester near the bottom of
this page. "MFD" and "UF" mean the same thing, "Microfarad". Many times you will see an "UF" rating on the capacitor instead of "MFD." Yes, these two abbreviations mean the same. Most of the time you can tell that a capacitor is bad because it will be swollen up. Please see the picture below for the comparison between a good and bad dual run capacitor. We call them dual because the capacitor helps run both the fan and the compressor.
*Tip: When identifying the capacitor that you have, you might see the rating stated in "MFD" or "UF." "MFD" and "UF" mean microfarad rating and mean the same.

Please see our capacitor testing meter located near the bottom of this page.
Please see our frequently asked question near the bottom of this page about "How to wire a dual capacitor."
For Your Information: It is OK to substitute a capacitor with a higher voltage rating. For example. It is quiet acceptable to substitute an existing 35/5, 370 volt capacitor with a 35/5, 440 volt capacitor. It is not acceptable to substitute and existing 35/5, 440 volt capacitor with a 35/5, 370 volt.

We Test All Capacitors We Sell With A Capacitor Tester to Make Sure They Are Up to Specifications Before Shipping.
Above Dual Round Cap: Above Dual Oval Cap: Above Oval Capacitor Terminals:
The Dual Round and Dual Oval Capacitors perform the same, but you might have to change the mounting strap in your system if the mounting bracket does not match up in size. I use
plumber's pipe strap and self-tapping sheet metal screws to make a bracket. Please be careful not to drill into your condensing unit's coil.
Most of the capacitors that we sell look like the Totaline Brand in the
picture above.
They are high quality OEM capacitors.

Bryant Carrier Thermal Start Kit
P421-4006
I find several of these Thermal Start Assist devices burnt out on Bryant & Carrier air conditioners and heat pumps during the summer months. They are compressor start assist devices so I decided to list them under "Capacitors." Below is a picture with an opportunity for you to purchase. The kit comes with wires, mounting bracket and instructions. The device is about 2" long, and 1 1/2" in diameter.
HC91PD001 Bryant Carrier 3 MFD (uF) Draft Inducer Motor Capacitor
This capacitor was added by customer request. I find this capacitor on many Bryant Carrier Draft Inducers. This small capacitor is only about and 1" X 1" square. The capacitor has a mounting hole in the back that you can not see in this picture.
Frequently Asked Question: I have this question asked many times so I decided to include this on our site.
I forgot how to wire up the dual round capacitor that I purchased from you. How do I go about wiring it up so it doesn't blow the capacitor up again?
Thanks for your interest in our web site! You would need to look at the wiring diagram that came with the unit. Usually the wiring diagram is glued to one of the panels on the air conditioner. Hope you can read it. Rule of thumb on wiring the capacitor is: Herm on capacitor goes to the start winding on the compressor, Fan on capacitor goes to brown fan wire that goes to the fan, and Com on the capacitor comes off one leg of the contactor to provide power to the capacitor. There are usually more than one wire connected to the Com terminal. The Com terminal is used so other components of the air conditioner can steal power off the Com connection. Best of luck! I hope you have a nice day! I also hope that you and your family have a Happy, Healthful and Prosperous 2006! God bless you and your family.
This is a great question from one of our potential customers:
Why does a motor or compressor need a capacitor to run properly? What actually does a capacitor do?
Thanks for your interest in our web site! Great question! On alternating current (AC) the current alternates on the voltage from zero to 110 or from zero to 220 volts 60 cycles per second. The run capacitor throws a stored charge in there when the voltage reaches the zero point and keeps the voltage steady instead of all the up and down voltage drops. This makes the motor or compressor run smoothly and more efficient. This is easily seen on an old
oscilloscope where you can see the AC current going up and down. 60 cycles per second is pretty durn fast! It is amazing! I hope this answers your question. Hope you have a nice day!
Capacitor Tester
Many times you can visually see that a capacitor is bad, but sometimes you need the help of capacitor tester. That is why we are offering this Supco Digital Capacitor tester for $85.00. This capacitor tester has a digital read out and tests capacitors from .01 to 10,000 MFD. This includes all types of start and run capacitors used in the refrigeration and air conditioning industries.The MFD10 is designed to meet all industrial specifications and service requirements.

*Please always turn off all electrical power, and discharge the capacitor/capacitors (if working around capacitors) before attempting to inspect or repair any heating & air conditioning equipment. Check to make sure the electrical power is off with a reliable meter. I have never been shocked by a capacitor (knock on wood) and rarely see them discharge, but it is a good idea to discharge them before working around them. Please read below. It tells you how to discharge a capacitor.
Please read the following:
How To Discharge The High Voltage Capacitor: The capacitor is discharged by creating a short circuit (direct connection) between the two capacitor terminals and from each terminal to chassis ground (bare metal surface).Please make sure that you are touching the insulated screw driver handle and not the metal part of the screw driver before attempting this procedure.
-
Do this by touching the blade of an insulated-handled screw driver to one terminal, then slide it toward the other terminal until it makes contact and hold it there for a few seconds. (Sometimes this can result in a rather "pop!")
-
Repeat the procedure to create a short between each capacitor terminal and chassis ground.
-
If the capacitor has three terminals, use the same procedure to create a short circuit between each terminal and then from each terminal to ground.
