5170W Parts

This dual run capacitor provides the start/run phase shift needed for compressor and evaporator/condenser fan motors in refrigerators. Restores proper motor operation and helps reduce hard starting or intermittent cycling. What it does:

• Supplies the correct capacitance to help the compressor start and run smoothly
• Powers fan motors that share the same capacitor bank
• Can correct symptoms like slow starts, humming, or motors that won't maintain speed
• Protects motors from irregular voltages by stabilizing motor phase timing

• Disconnect power to the appliance before service to avoid shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals; capacitors can hold charge after power is removed
• Replace with the same capacitance and voltage rating; match terminal layout for correct connections
