    Thank you. This video gave me the confidence to make this repair myself. I saved at least $150 and 2 weeks of waiting for a guy to come out. Thanks!

    Thanks for this video. My search for symptoms brought me here, and your solution got my heat exchanger running again with a $13 part instead of a call to the HVAC company.

    I had this problem, but it ended up being the motor. big bucks. I saw the hvac guy test the capacitor and it showed the correct readings.

    Thanks so much!! Video was perfect and right to the point. I know nothing about a/c except it’s hot and I need it lol anyways it took me longer to go get the $24 part than it did to fix it! And you saved me expensive service call, thanks from Arkansas!

    why after changing the ac capacitor is making that buzzing sound? Could that be the fan motor or the ac contactor?
    Also another question, I replace my capacitor with a new one and sometimes my fan blade doesn't spin. But if a lightly bang on the fan motor on the top and hit it a few times softly the fan starts spinning again. So is that the fan motor going bad, or is the new ac capacitor going bad already? Please help!
    Thank you!

    Is capacitors the most common problem? I have a Goodman unit and my fan would run and then quit and after sitting off for hours run fine again for a bit. I noticed the top of the fan motor very hot to the touch. Melt your skin if you left your hand on it. Could that be a sign of a bad motor or is that common and my capacitor is shot. I ordered a fan motor should I just go ahead with a capacitor too since they seem to be rather cheap?? Fan always seems to spin freely even after it quits

    Compressor is humming on and off the condenser has two cap. The run cap has a mfd of 55+-10persent. When I check the run cap it reads 50mfd. Should I change the cap. And how do I install a dual cap.

    Same problem but I'm getting a 10 reading from the common to fan hookups.
    Does that mean it's my fan motor that's bad?
