Default Both caps blew! Why?
In article ,
says...

My compressor wouldn't start this morning. So I figured it might be a
bad starting cap. But both caps had blown. All the guts right out of
the ends. Could it be that one cap blew first and then the other cap
failed because of the extra work it had to do?
Thanks,
Eric



Could be.

Did you have any lightning due to stormes in the ares from the last time
you used it ?
