Jenn-Air Capacitor

The Run Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool refrigerators. It is an electronic component that assists in powering the refrigerator's compressor motor. The capacitor functions to provide an electrical boost needed to start the compressor running smoothly during each cooling cycle.

Causes of a bad capacitor can include deterioration of dielectric material over many years of operation or accidental moisture penetration into the capacitor case.

Symptoms of a bad capacitor include:

• The refrigerator compressor failing to turn on/refrigeration cycles not operating
• Loud humming noises coming from behind the refrigerator
• Erratic cooling performance and fluctuating interior temperatures

This OEM part is also compatible with KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Admiral, and Kenmore refrigerator models. 

This magnetron capacitor is the microwave high-voltage capacitor that helps supply the magnetron with the pulse of energy needed to produce heat. Replacing a failing capacitor restores normal heating performance and reduces arcing or loud humming. What it does

• Stores and releases the high-voltage pulse required by the magnetron so the microwave can generate heat.
• Prevents unstable magnetron operation that can cause weak or no heating.
• Common symptoms of a failing capacitor: oven runs but doesn't heat, intermittent heating, loud buzzing/humming, or visible arcing inside the cavity.
• A failed capacitor can also cause blown internal fuses or tripped circuits.

• One capacitor.

• Disconnect power and verify the appliance is completely de-energized before servicing.
• Capacitors can hold dangerous charge; discharge the capacitor safely with an insulated tool.
• Use the exact replacement part and follow the appliance service manual for routing and connections.

The Capacitor is an OEM part for Whirlpool range hoods. This capacitor functions to optimize blower motor performance. It works in tandem with the motor to efficiently expel cooking vapors and gases from the kitchen.

Causes relate to standard wear over extended use of the vent hood. Electrical issues can cause premature capacitor failure.  

Symptoms of a bad capacitor include:

• Reduced air circulation and weaker ventilation
• Abnormal humming or grinding noises from the motor
• Failure of the blower to turn on as desired

This OEM Whirlpool part is also compatible with Maytag, KitchenAid, Jenn-Air, Amana, Magic Chef, Admiral, Norge, Roper and some Kenmore models.

This high-voltage magnetron capacitor stores and delivers the pulse of energy the microwave magnetron needs to generate heat. Replacing a failed unit restores proper high-voltage function so the oven can heat reliably. What it does:

• Stores and releases high-voltage energy to the magnetron during cooking cycles.
• Works with the oven's diode and transformer to produce microwave energy.
• A failed capacitor can cause no heat, weak heating, or a blown fuse/circuit interruption.
• Designed for the microwave high-voltage assembly; handle as a high-voltage component.

• Disconnect power and unplug the appliance before service.
• Discharge the capacitor with an insulated tool before touching terminals.
• Verify this part number matches your appliance before ordering.

This running capacitor restores proper motor operation by providing the phase shift needed for fan and compressor motors. It helps motors run smoothly and reduces overheating or hard-start symptoms when the original capacitor fails. What it does:

• Provides the steady electrical phase shift required for motor operation in refrigeration and HVAC systems
• Helps restore normal motor starting and running performance
• Can reduce motor overheating, humming, or intermittent operation caused by a bad capacitor
• Used when the motor runs poorly, won't reach full speed, or cycles unusually

• 1 running capacitor

• Disconnect power at the breaker and verify the appliance is de-energized before servicing
• Discharge the capacitor with an insulated tool and wear insulated gloves and eye protection
• Replace with the same type and mounting orientation; secure all wire connections firmly
