DIAGNOSING START COMPONENTS

If the compressor attempts to start, or hums and trips
the overload protector, check the start components
before replacing the compressor.

Capacitor

Visual evidence of capacitor failure can include a
bulged terminal end or a ruptured membrane. Do not
assume a capacitor is good if no visual evidence is
present. A good test is to install a known good
substitute capacitor. Use a capacitor tester when
checking a suspect capacitor. Clip the bleed resistor
off the capacitor terminals before testing.
