I think it is probably a start capacitor, not a run capacitor, not
positive. If the compressor actually runs for a bit it is probably the
relay, Very carefully unscrew one of the wires from the capacitor to
the relay, With a helper hold the loose wire on terminal with a
insulated pliers. Have assistant plug in fridge, as soon as compressor
starts remove loose wire. If compressor keeps running you need a relay.
You are being the relay holding the wire, If it is a run capacitor I
think fridge would still run just at higher amps.
