Is A/C capacitor supposed to look like this?

Here's what I've found so far. The spade connector contacts on both
the capacitors were highly corroded. I used a Dremel to grind off rust
to get a clean contact surface.
The electromagnetic contact switch works, definitely engages. I hooked
everything back up, put the top of the unit back on secured it with a
few of the screws.
The top fan works so apparently that capacitor isn't bad enough to
prevent that. As I was sitting by the unit after a few minutes I heard
a humming noise that sounded like the compressor had momentarily
kicked in but then stopped.
Further, on that circuit board there's a red LED that flashes while
the unit is running.
Maybe if you were to take a crowbar to your wallet and called a *competent*,
licensed, insured, professionally trained tech??
Dammit...Stop that. We aren't done playing with him yet.
