Parts for EST12XCM: Room Air Conditioner Parts

This motor run capacitor helps your appliance's compressor or fan motor start and keep running for consistent cooling and operation. Replacing a failed capacitor restores normal motor performance and can stop intermittent operation. What it does:

• Provides the electrical phase shift needed for compressor/fan motors to start and run
• Commonly associated with symptoms like hard-starting or non-starting compressor, humming motors, or intermittent cooling
• Helps stabilize motor operation to prevent frequent cycling and reduced efficiency
• Works as the replaceable electrical component that interfaces with the motor start circuit

• Disconnect power at the breaker before accessing electrical components
• Discharge the capacitor before handling to avoid shock; use insulated tools and confirmed procedures
• Verify terminal fit and orientation; match voltage and microfarad ratings from the existing capacitor
