Sealed (really sealed) run capacitors?
Jon Elson fired this volley in
:
Ugh. So, the cap is electrically connected to the motor by some
contacts that are held together by whatever mounts it mechanically?
First, I'd check it with the Ohms scale on a DVM, then charge the cap
with the diode test on a DVM and see if it holds charge for any time.
It should show low resistance first, then charge up and eventually show
a very high resistance on the Ohms scale. If not, it is shot.
If you can't find an exact replacement, you may have to solder wires
and
use a standard cap with QC terminals.
You don't read the group in threaded view, do you, Jon?
All this and more were dealt with in prior responses.
