Description

This capacitor powers the compressor motor by providing the electrical boost needed at startup and during operation, helping the refrigeration system run reliably. Replaces a failed or weak capacitor to restore proper motor function and reduce hard-start symptoms. What it does:

• Stores and releases electrical energy to give the compressor motor the extra torque it needs to start
• Helps stabilize motor voltage during normal run cycles for smoother operation
• Commonly linked to hard-starting compressors, humming, or motors that fail to start
• Prevents repeated overload trips caused by a weak or failed capacitor

What's included: One replacement capacitor (single unit as shown) Install notes:

• Disconnect power to the appliance before servicing to avoid shock or injury
• Capacitors can hold a charge—discharge safely
• Verify terminal orientation and secure connections; use the OEM part number to confirm fit
