Whirlpool Capacitor

This motor run capacitor helps the appliance motor start and run more smoothly, restoring proper motor performance and reducing hum or startup problems. It's a direct-replacement electrical component used in compatible Whirlpool appliances. What it does:

• Provides the phase-shifted current the motor needs to start and maintain normal operation
• Helps reduce motor humming, slow starts, or intermittent motor stalls
• Restores proper motor torque and efficiency when the original capacitor has failed
• Works as the electrical timing/storing component for motor cycles

• One motor run capacitor

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting replacement to avoid electrical shock
• Discharge the capacitor before touching terminals; use insulated tools and follow safe procedures
• Match terminal configuration and mounting to the original part

This motor run/start capacitor helps the appliance motor start and run more reliably, restoring normal operation when the original capacitor has failed. Replacing a bad capacitor can reduce motor humming and prevent startup issues. What it does:

• Provides the stored electrical charge needed to start and stabilize the motor
• Helps the compressor, fan or motor reach proper speed during startup
• Commonly replaces capacitors that are weak, bulging or not holding charge
• May resolve symptoms like humming, intermittent starting, or motors that won't run

• One replacement capacitor

• Disconnect power at the breaker before attempting any service
• Verify capacitor is discharged and use insulated tools; capacitors can hold a dangerous charge
• Confirm compatibility with your appliance using model or serial number before ordering

This electrical capacitor stores and releases energy to help the appliance's electrical system operate smoothly and reliably. Replacing a failed capacitor restores proper electrical performance and can prevent erratic motor or control behavior. What it does:

• Provides short-term energy storage for motors and control circuits to start and run correctly
• Helps prevent motor hesitation, intermittent stopping, or weak starts when failing
• Reduces electrical noise and helps stabilize voltage to sensitive control components
• Commonly replaced when symptoms include humming, failure to start, or erratic operation

• Disconnect power to the appliance before attempting any service to avoid shock or injury
• Handle the capacitor carefully; follow proper discharge and safety procedures before touching terminals
• Replace with the exact part number and specifications to ensure correct fit and safe operation

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
