Customer of mine who has owed a very reputable RV dealership for decades advised me long ago “clean AC coils AND drip pans every year. KEEP SPARE REPLACEMENT CAPACITORS IN RV/CAMPER.

Thanks Dan! I owe you a cup of coffee if we ever meet. Great info. Great explanation! Found parts i needed. Camper AC back up and running. Time for a NASCAR race and maybe some dirt track racing!
@DansWay I'm about to finally get a ladder so i can climb up mine and try to fix it. Is there a way to know if only one needs replaced? Unfortunately, money is a huge issue currently
@@trillnfly sorry I missed this comment. There is one cap for the fan, and one or two for the compressor, so based on the problem you have (it won't likely be both) just replace the ones required.
Thank you! I was just dealing with this issue today, I was leery of touching the screw driver to the cap while everything was still connected. You showed it doesn’t matter if the wires are still connected.
Thank You Sir! Such a pleasure to watch someone do a very thorough and well detailed video! I have to help a neighbor on his RV, we're not sure if it's the CAP or fan motor, but this sure helps! Also you had very good parenting and schooling!
Hey Donna, I'm so proud of you for taking this on! Great job. I LOVE saving money trying to do things myself, and appreciate your commenting back. Be blessed!
@DansWay we have a 50amp Jayco travel trailer. Main A/C had stopped working & it was no fuse or Breakers. Found your video & went on the roof and opened up the unit. Replaced both the capacitors (not sure which one it could be). A/C is working again. Nice & Cold
I’m taking your advise and replacing my 2 caps. Fan wouldn’t come on. Your Amazon links helped me find ones I could get the next day with minimal effort. Super good advise.
@@free.2B now you know how to get in there so it will be a quick swap. For me the compressor ran SO MUCH better after replacing the cap. It wasn’t chugging when the voltage was low, and the startup was snappy and quick vs. struggling to get up to speed.
Thanks for a great video. It looks like what I need to do. I ran mine hard last year during the record heat wave and I went to test it this year and the fan doesn't kick on anymore. I would guess it is the start capacitor. I'll have to take a gander.
Wanted to say thank you so very much for this amazing informative video regarding these capacitors. Of course, I am sure it goes without saying today was the day to turn on my A/C in my RV and wella it produced the dreadful hummmmmm. Turned it off right away, went to "You Tube University" where I have obtained my PHD due to living full time in my RV and found your channel. Subscribed, used your links to order the caps Yep you guessed it all 3 of them, however since you did your video a year ago 2 of the 3 needed are not available so I had to buy different brands to obtain same ratings. Once again thank you, parts arrive tomorrow, AC on tomorrow evening:))))
@@DansWay Good Afternoon Dan, Well here I am finally a week later! I installed the new caps all three of them (so happy I followed your advise and bought all three, they were in really bad shape) turned the unit on and holy crap it was loud. Went back to You Tube University found a few excellent videos regarding my next problem bad fan motor. Just ordered the part, it will arrive next week I will get it installed and let you know how it goes. Thanks again for the video. Excellent and informative, Enjoy, Elizabeth
@@DansWay Hi Dan, Well thanks to your channel and the guy on RV Foodies regarding the motor replacement I am back in business with my A/C. Got the new motor got it insatlled today and just completed the prelim testing of the A/C and it is working. It is late so I will begin using my A/C this week and hopefully everything continues to function properly. Thanks so very much once again Enjoy, Elizabeth
@@elizabethjames3440 Hey Elizabeth, so glad to hear back from you! I'm glad you finally have this working, and in time for this summer as well. Enjoy the cool!
Great information! Took capacitors to shop for testing and they are both good. Both rooftop and inside fans spin easily by hand. What else could I check to get the a/c running? When I turn it on, the motor hums, but no fan. Thank you
Wow, ok... If it hums it is getting power, so that eliminates a lot. The fan's cap still could be bad when run at full voltage, so I guess I would still grab one from Amazon (you can always return it). Otherwise perhaps the wiring is broken between the cap or even inside the motor itself somehow? Not sure... Start with the cap.
Re-reading this, I'm wondering if you mean that the humming is from the compressor, but the fan doesn't do anything? Or is the humming coming from your fan? If the compressor hums (running) but no fan at all, I have had this be a thermostat issue in the past. Check that the signal for the fan is coming from the thermostat. If you used to be able to run the fan without the AC, that is a great test to run and get working.
Replaced my capacitor, and thermostat. All I hear is a click from inside the RV. I'm racking my brain to try and figure this out. Everything is in great shape and only a 2018. Smh
@@DansWay I have ordered the parts and hopefully will have it back working by end of the week. I had no clue where to start and definitely wouldn’t have known where/what to order.
Great video. Only one questions, maybe all you needed was the fan capacitor? I will have to look up directions on how to diagnose the fan capacitor. My Rockford 5th Wheel has same ac unit. My ac will not start until I go up on roof and spin the fan. Then compressor comes on and life is good. But when the temp is reached and AC turns off I have to repeat the process. I'm thinking in my case all I need is the fan capacitor but without knowing how to diagnose each individual piece It's a crap shoot.
You are correct, the fan capacitor is very likely the culprit in your case. My suggestion, however is that if your air conditioner is more than five years old, you could go ahead and replace all the capacitors while you have it all apart. I found the compressor ran substantially smoother, and start up was, much better as well after replacing the compressor motor caps when I did. The ‘Chugging’ sound went away completely.
How do I test to see if it’s those things? My AC was working but sometimes, we had to play with the switch to get it to run the last few weeks. Then a couple days ago, it just shut off and didn’t come back on. My fan won’t come on but when attempting to turn it on, there is a clicking sound. My trailer is 12yrs old.
If the switch is flakey that could be the key issue for your unit. You might want to replace that before working on the unit itself. I've had a bad thermostat that was keeping the fan from running.
Having a puzzling issue and hoping what I've ordered will work. But I have a Emerson quiet Kool system, it's 3 speed and from the 90s. First issue was motor would hum and not spin when on, had the start capacitor fail. Ordered one, but it had the wrong MFD (higher than what it came with) but installed anyway. AC worked for about a month. Issue reoccured suddenly, motor was running and then stopped (same issue as before). Replaced start capacitor with proper one, didn't work. Compressor turns on no issue, just the fan motor doesn't. I've now ordered the run capacitor and the relay, think that'll do it?
Dear Dan, I have the same ac unit as you, I would like to know when using a dual run capacitor, the Brown and Brown/ White wires for the fan motor will connect to which terminal’s on the capacitor?
C is the common point between the two caps. Herm goes to the compressor, fan to fan. This only works if the fan and compressor have the same common point.
This is a temperature sensitive resistor like the one on the following link: geni.us/88-108uFcap It is labeled "WSX-5ACM". You can buy the capacitor and resistor as a kit in the link, or ones like it. I would also ask the question however, why didn't the motor start up? After replacing the cap and resistor be sure there is no other reason (bad compressor) that it burned up in the first place.
Generally speaking every fan motor and compressor will have motor start/run capacitors. Even central air conditioning in your home will have these components. The location however will be different depending on your AC type...
@@johndalton9484 The brand isn't important really. It is the voltage rating and value (in MFD) of the cap that matters. You will need to get into yours to read the specs and match them. I have links to a number of these on Amazon, but you can find a lot more there.
You have to read the specs off the ones in your unit. So take it apart and take pictures then go online to find a match. I have a few examples in the description to get you started.
Not sure if youd be able to answer my question ❓ my roof ac works great and every once in awhile which ive only owned this rv for about a month now itll shut off and trip my breaker when i go to turn it on low the fan doesnt wanna spin but hear a noise like it has power but doesnt spin i hit switch to high fan then itll spin turn it on ac high and itll work sometimes for a week or few days then will trip breaker
Interesting... The circuit breaker tripping is concerning for sure. You say it will restart, but the fan won't turn: Are you saying the compressor starts up (the low frequency hum), but the fan won't spin unless you kick the fan to high? I guess my first guess would be the fan capacitor needs to be replaced. I always recommend replacing all of them while you are in there. The low-speed fan not starting definitely sounds like the cap. Give the fan a spin to be sure it freely spins.
@@DansWay thanks Dan your the Man I found it and I've replaced my fan capacitor but not my starter capacitor so I'm praying that's all it is wife's on the way to get part so I'll know for sure shortly, once again thank you so much 🤘
You could try to get the wiring diagram for the exact model which should be enough info. Just be sure to purchase high voltage caps, 370v or 240v if possible, assuming this is a 120v system.
I think I need to switch mine out. Since we got ours, the compressor during startup will start up when it wants. Now last fall I had to keep spinning the fan. Now today I had to spin the fan but then after about 10 minutes the fan would shut down. Leaving the compressor running.
Sir, i was looking to achieve this procedure...can you tell me what are the parts number for run and start and fan competitors so i can order them from Amazon....thanks David
@@JunkFam1 Ok, cool. I have seen fans get 'stuck' after a season of being unused. Like the bearings get frozen in place. Just nudging the fan a couple of turns sometimes is enough to get it moving again for the whole season.
I replaced all three capacitors. Specs of the new ones: 7.5 MFD 6% 370V, 45/5 MFD 6% 370V, and a 88-108 MFD 165 V. I did not replace the resistor. AC started up great after replacing capacitors. Left it running. Went back to check it and it was not blowing, just humming. Turned it off. (Two knobs on unit, no external thermostat) Tried to turn it back on and no fan. Just the hum. What should I do next? Thanks for the help!
@@DansWay haha I have no idea. What would you recommend I do to figure that out? And which one of these is the motor capacitor? And any idea what would make that happen again so quickly?
You’ll want to follow the wires that go to the fan back to the wiring area. There you’ll see that one of them is going straight to a cap, or is indirectly connected to it. That is the one to replace.
@@DansWay so it looks like it is the fan capacitor. I’ve ordered another one. I have a question though. The bigger capacitor that I bought to replace the 1499-573 45 uf capacitor, the new one has the three tabs like yours in the video. One of them is labeled fan. It only has one tab though for connection. Could I somehow wire the brown wire and brown with white stripe wire from the non working fan capacitor up to this one?
Your video was stellar for helping us diagnose! THANK YOU! However, I'm having trouble finding a 45/12uf/370 capacitor for our 2005 Carrier A/C. (Yes, ancient, but up until a few weeks ago, it was running like a champ! Now it hums, but the fan won't kick over.) Capacitors are much cheaper than a whole new unit, so wondering how we go about replacing this. We opened her up and discovered the capacitor is a combo, so it has the three ports on top. The closest replacement I found on Amazon was a 45/10. Will that suffice? Any thoughts or help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Glad you found this helpful. You could likely get away with the 10uF vs. 12uF. You can also try splitting it up into two different caps if that helps you get the correct sizes.
@@DansWay - Thanks so much for the reply! Sorry, but I don't know anything about the electrical numbers side of things. How would I split this up into two different caps?
@@the2youngs you can get a 45uF cap and a 12uF cap. The wires going to the COM or common terminal of the existing capacitor would be split between the two new caps. The pairs of wires 'should' make it obvious which wires go to each cap. The motor-start for motor-run functions for example. I would start with the 45/10uF cap you found and if it works, then your done.
Could be a lot of things. Bad Compressor, bad thermostat or wiring, bad run capacitor... Does it make any compressor sounds at all? You will need to check the compressor to confirm it is receiving voltage. If so, then the cap could be problem.
@@DansWay hi! No the compressor isn’t coming on at all and we changed out both capacitors and still the same. We had a rv repair guy come out yesterday and he said we have to replace the whole ac unit on top of the rv..so that is sad news because it’s expensive and we were hoping it was just the compressor or something easily replaceable.
Great instructional video. Could you offer a replacement suggestion for the following capacitor: C65R. 60uf ±5% 370VAC. I didn't find a suitable replacement in PowerWell Capacitors.
I would suggest you try this one. It has both the 60uF and a 5uF tap. You can ignore the 5uF tap, just use the 'COM' terminal and the terminal not labeled 'FAN' (likely it will say 'herm').
I have what appears to be the same AC. The capacitors are good. The fan spins freely by hand. Neither the fan nor the compressor starts or makes any noise. The breaker is closed. There is voltage at the capacitors. Do you know if there is a reset button somewhere? or any other thoughts? Thank you!
Did you figure this out yet? Sounds like the thermostat itself is t working properly. I would start there. You can manually connect the wires together to trigger the fan or compressor.
@@DansWay There is no typical thermostat. It has 2 dials. 1 is rotated to turn to 4 selections, off, fan, low cool, high cool. With it turned off there is no voltage where the capacitors are. With it turned to fan, or low cool, or high cool, it is live where the capacitor wires are. The other dial is rotated to set cool, min to max. As it is rotated I can see the voltage output increase. at the wires plugged into the back of the dial.
@@DansWay my mothers airxcel 48000 was working last night but just shut off this morning and won't turn back on. Checked the breaker it's not flipped, fuse seems to be in tact. Not sure what's going on. 😕
Hi Dan, you mentioned "if you have compressor start up issues, replace the pzt as well". Can you please specify what is the pzt? My rooftop coleman mach ac will make a buzzzing/humming noise but cant seem to kick on fully. I am about to purchase the run and start capacitors but not sure if I need to replace pzt? (what exactly is this?) Thanks for your help!!
The PZT is the small box connected to the top of one of the caps. Not likely to be the problem. I'd just start with the caps and see if it comes alive for you.
Awesome ! Ok got it ! I will try the caps first and resort to replacing the “pzt” should the issue persist. I appreciate your quick response . I will let you know if this works for me, thanks for the info and support
Hello Dan , So I successfully replaced all 3 caps but my unit still won’t fully turn on, I’m still hearing a buzzing/humming noise when I try to run the fan or AC on low or high. I did see you manually push you fan blades and it seemed to rotate smoothly on its on after your initial assistance. When I tried replicating that to my fan , I feel immediate resistance. Do you have any recommendations?
when im using gen power and my ac kicks in my surge protector gives a reverse polarity code. when the fan kicks off the code goes away. any idea how to trace to the problem? thank you
When we first bought our 5th wheel we noticed that nothing other than the fan would turn on. You had to turn it to cold and basically walk away. I understand these things have a delay but my times ranged from instant to up to 30 minutes before the compressor would start. Haven't fixed that yet but now last year the fan started acting up. Acting like it wasn't getting enough power, I had to take the inside cover off and give it a spin and then it would take off an go. Fast forward to now. Still have to give the fan a good spin before it takes off and goes but then after about 10 minutes the fan shuts down. I believe I still hear the compressor running. Is that something to do with the run capacitors? I bought all 3. Going to change them out tomorrow. I just keep thinking maybe the fan itself is bad and drawing too much and something shuts it down.
YES! These are all the symptoms of the run and start capacitors failing. Let me know how it works after replacing them. I can't explain the 30-minute startup time, but perhaps that will change as well. If you still have the 30-minute delay, check to see if the thermostat is giving a proper signal to engage the AC.
@@DansWay When we first got it you could hear something up top I think click. I was always able to turn the fan on and off. Auto it would only turn on when the comp fired up. Just did it whenever it felt like it but always would finally go. But now last fall and this summer I'm having this issue with the fan. Last fall I got it going by giving it a spin and it would run all day. This year when trying that, everything shuts down after 10 minutes or so and locks itself out. Have to wait about 5 to 10 minutes before the fan starts humming again. Give it a spin and it would take off. 5 to 10 minutes it will trip again. So far been hearing the fan drawing too much power, low volts, or bad capacitors. Guess we will find out tomorrow morning.
Had everything going several times Friday night. Now today the compressor wouldn't start again. Finally bypassed the thermostat and it fired right up. This whole time it's been nothing but a bad thermostat minus the actual fan problem. That was definitely a capacitor.
Here’s my situation. The ac first started with an issue working just in fan and not on auto. I cleaned it well, vacuumed and worked well for about a month. Then started failing again, it would stop while running, like if it wasn’t getting enough power, or like when a camel is lose and doesn’t make good contact. I cleaned it again and this time I washed it as best as I could. It worked fine for a day, but today it started doing the same thing. Starts then loses power and goes off. Do you think that’s the capacitor related issue?
What brand/model is this AC unit? I have a Dometic Brisk Air duo therm. It looks very similar to the one in this video. Just wondering if I can go ahead and order these caps without climbing up on the roof first.
@@DansWay My AC only has 1 capacitor, 45/5. My AC is doing the same thing yours, in this video, is doing. Compressor kicks on, Dan does not. With only 1 capacitor, do you still think it could be that? It stopped working after a power surge from my generator.
@@andrew-5077 Strange... I would think the fan would need a cap. Any chance there is a cap cover mounted to the motor itself? Follow the wires back. Also, check that there is voltage getting to the fan at all. If not, the problem could be a damaged/disconnected thermostat wire. Worst case it is the controller circuit board inside the AC unit.
I replaced the smaller of the 2 capacitors and the fan still won't work. Could it be the larger capacitor?? The AC compressor makes a humming sound but no fan.
Try following the wires back to the fan. There should only be one cap connected between the two fan wires. Check for power on those leads to be sure your system is even sending power to the fan. Does the fan spin freely?
Dan, great video. I have a year 2000 motorhome with Dometic reverse cycle a/c and my forward unit's fan will only operate on high. The a/c or heat works but the fan will not come on in low or auto but only high. These units are using the old 4 button controller. Would you think this is a capacitor issue or something else? Many thanks!
If you start it on high then switch to low, does it completely stop or sorta slow down making noise? If it just stops dead it sounds more like an electrical issue, like a broken wire or bad relay in the controller. Doesn’t hurt to replace caps on the motor and compressor after 20 years. I found that my compressor runs and starts much more smoothly after replacement, and that wasn’t why I was up there.
@@DansWay Thanks for the reply. Starting on high and then switching doesn't do anything for it will immediately kill the fan. One person I spoke with seems to think that it's the control board gone bad but I don't know ....... what is your opinion on that?
@@bobgodfrey9524 sounds like a bad controller, but could still be wiring to the controller on the wall thermostat. Does the compressor continue to run, or does the whole thing shut down? Not sure if that info would be helpful. Definitely need to get a meter on the control board to see what’s going on.
@@DansWay Yes, compressor still runs but of course I'm concerned about damaging it if the fan isn't on. Fan does nothing in auto or low setting but everything works fine in high fan setting.
@@bobgodfrey9524 I am having this same issue with mine at the moment did you ever get it fixed? I can hear the compressor and it turns on but my fan doesn’t spin anymore. Like yours mine used to only work on high and when put on low would sound a little squeaky like the fan was having trouble getting a push. Everything turns on still but the fam doesn’t spin even with a manual push. Tia
So, the capacitor on mine "should" look the same as the one with the VR. VR is literally toast, lol! My question is, mine says 43-52 MFD. Is it going to make a big difference on the MFD numbers if I replace it with the linked combo? Also, the link description states that it only works for Coleman AC, did they buy duo therm maybe?
Hey Eric, You definitely need the numbers to be in the same range (don't go 35 or 60MFD). You can use combined or separate as long as the values are a close match.
@@DansWay I actually found the direct replacement with the thermistor in a kit on Amazon. Found the parts manual and used the manufacturer part number for the search criteria. Capacitor P/N 3106732.005 per their parts list. I will try to link it here if I can figure out how. The cost is $50.98.
No, that's not it, just saw this while rewatching to make sure I didn't miss anything 🤣. I'll find it and send to your email. Thanks for your help and patience with this.
@@DansWay works as it should from the factory. When I turn on the unit I get a humm. If I literally breath on the fan it starts, runs properly until the ac reaches desired temp. Then will not start again unless I spin the fan. The fan is not hard to turn. Bearings feel good. The shaft of the motor has been lubed. I appreciate the help.
Oh wow, not sure how that is possible. Perhaps the start capacitor is bad so it starts up backwards? Crazy... Did it used to work normally? If so, I'd replace the caps and see if that changes things. Amazon has a good return policy!
@@DansWay Thank you for your reply. I hope to cooperate with you. I am the manager of Auxito.com. I really like your video. If you can, would you please tell me your email?

The fan's cap still could be bad when run at full voltage, so I guess I would still grab one from Amazon (you can always return it). Otherwise perhaps the wiring is broken between the cap or even inside the motor itself somehow? Not sure... Start with the cap.
Re-reading this, I'm wondering if you mean that the humming is from the compressor, but the fan doesn't do anything? Or is the humming coming from your fan? If the compressor hums (running) but no fan at all, I have had this be a thermostat issue in the past. Check that the signal for the fan is coming from the thermostat. If you used to be able to run the fan without the AC, that is a great test to run and get working.
Replaced my capacitor, and thermostat. All I hear is a click from inside the RV. I'm racking my brain to try and figure this out. Everything is in great shape and only a 2018. Smh
@@NSWvet83 so no fan or compressor? I'd be looking at power issues then. Confirm you have 120VAC to the control board inside the unit.
Thank you for this! Thank you for showing how to do it and explaining it thoroughly.
Your very welcome. Did you get yours working?
@@DansWay I have ordered the parts and hopefully will have it back working by end of the week. I had no clue where to start and definitely wouldn’t have known where/what to order.
Great video. Only one questions, maybe all you needed was the fan capacitor? I will have to look up directions on how to diagnose the fan capacitor. My Rockford 5th Wheel has same ac unit. My ac will not start until I go up on roof and spin the fan. Then compressor comes on and life is good. But when the temp is reached and AC turns off I have to repeat the process. I'm thinking in my case all I need is the fan capacitor but without knowing how to diagnose each individual piece It's a crap shoot.
You are correct, the fan capacitor is very likely the culprit in your case. My suggestion, however is that if your air conditioner is more than five years old, you could go ahead and replace all the capacitors while you have it all apart. I found the compressor ran substantially smoother, and start up was, much better as well after replacing the compressor motor caps when I did. The ‘Chugging’ sound went away completely.
While you were in there, why didn't you clean the evaporator coils?
Good point, it definitely needed it... I was focused on getting it running at all (and filming the video).
Outstanding video, absolutely no nonsense and no bad info. Thank you!
How do I test to see if it’s those things? My AC was working but sometimes, we had to play with the switch to get it to run the last few weeks. Then a couple days ago, it just shut off and didn’t come back on. My fan won’t come on but when attempting to turn it on, there is a clicking sound. My trailer is 12yrs old.
If the switch is flakey that could be the key issue for your unit. You might want to replace that before working on the unit itself. I've had a bad thermostat that was keeping the fan from running.
Hi Dan, thank you for your awesome Video.
Glad you liked it! Did this help you with yours?
Having a puzzling issue and hoping what I've ordered will work. But I have a Emerson quiet Kool system, it's 3 speed and from the 90s. First issue was motor would hum and not spin when on, had the start capacitor fail. Ordered one, but it had the wrong MFD (higher than what it came with) but installed anyway. AC worked for about a month. Issue reoccured suddenly, motor was running and then stopped (same issue as before). Replaced start capacitor with proper one, didn't work. Compressor turns on no issue, just the fan motor doesn't. I've now ordered the run capacitor and the relay, think that'll do it?
Oh man, not sure if the motor could be damaged by the wrong cap or not... Did you get it working with the replacement parts?
@@DansWay nope, replaced both capacitors and the relay. Same issue. The motor is not easily obtainable so went with a window unit for now
@@DylanDr1pDr0pWilhelmi ah man... sorry it didn't come back to life for you!
Dear Dan, I have the same ac unit as you, I would like to know when using a dual run capacitor, the Brown and Brown/ White wires for the fan motor will connect to which terminal’s on the capacitor?
How are the terminals labeled or marked on your capacitor?
@@DansWay Fan, C, Herm.
C is the common point between the two caps. Herm goes to the compressor, fan to fan. This only works if the fan and compressor have the same common point.
@@DansWay Brown to Fan, Brown/White to C= Common, Thanks!
I have a resistor melted downs I can't read the info on it . to replace it what do I need to replace it with ??? info to get one ??
This is a temperature sensitive resistor like the one on the following link: geni.us/88-108uFcap It is labeled "WSX-5ACM". You can buy the capacitor and resistor as a kit in the link, or ones like it. I would also ask the question however, why didn't the motor start up? After replacing the cap and resistor be sure there is no other reason (bad compressor) that it burned up in the first place.
@@DansWay the run cap is at 25 uf the resistor is burnt up..can I buy buy a resistor seppret order parts all but that,??
Great video. Really helped me out. ❤
Glad it was helpful! Did you replace all the caps?
Yes I did
Thanks for the video! You said replace the pzt if your having startup issues. What is that?
and you be blessed also. Great video and spot on. Thank You !!!
Is it the same for a Class A motorhome? Also are they compatible with any A/C brand or are the parts brand specific?
Generally speaking every fan motor and compressor will have motor start/run capacitors. Even central air conditioning in your home will have these components. The location however will be different depending on your AC type...
@@DansWay thank you. So the ones on your links are interchangeable with any RV ac unit or are they brand specific? I have a Coleman Mach unit
@@johndalton9484 The brand isn't important really. It is the voltage rating and value (in MFD) of the cap that matters. You will need to get into yours to read the specs and match them. I have links to a number of these on Amazon, but you can find a lot more there.
Thank you so much
You are very welcome!
How do you know which ones to buy? I have a Carrier Air V in our 5th wheel.
You have to read the specs off the ones in your unit. So take it apart and take pictures then go online to find a match. I have a few examples in the description to get you started.
Not sure if youd be able to answer my question ❓ my roof ac works great and every once in awhile which ive only owned this rv for about a month now itll shut off and trip my breaker when i go to turn it on low the fan doesnt wanna spin but hear a noise like it has power but doesnt spin i hit switch to high fan then itll spin turn it on ac high and itll work sometimes for a week or few days then will trip breaker
Interesting... The circuit breaker tripping is concerning for sure. You say it will restart, but the fan won't turn: Are you saying the compressor starts up (the low frequency hum), but the fan won't spin unless you kick the fan to high? I guess my first guess would be the fan capacitor needs to be replaced. I always recommend replacing all of them while you are in there. The low-speed fan not starting definitely sounds like the cap. Give the fan a spin to be sure it freely spins.
Excellent video
Thanks for the comment!
What if it's the opposite were the fan works but compressor only hums? Mine has the same run and start capacitor.
Likely the compressor caps. Replace them both (all while you are in there) and it will likely start right up.
@@DansWay I tested the start capacitor and it read 170mfd. Higher than rated 88-108mfd. The run capacitor tested within the correct range
Very strange that it is so high. I would change that one out.
Where are the links lol and thanks for this video I pray this works for mine🥵🥵
Hey Josh, take a look at the description of this video for the links.
@@DansWay thanks Dan your the Man I found it and I've replaced my fan capacitor but not my starter capacitor so I'm praying that's all it is wife's on the way to get part so I'll know for sure shortly, once again thank you so much 🤘
Thank you for the information!
Your very welcome! Did it work for you?
Great Video - thx
Did you have this problem with your AC?
Would I have to open the unit to see exactly what size and model I need or could I find it with the year , make & model ?
Great video btw thanx
You could try to get the wiring diagram for the exact model which should be enough info. Just be sure to purchase high voltage caps, 370v or 240v if possible, assuming this is a 120v system.
I think I need to switch mine out. Since we got ours, the compressor during startup will start up when it wants. Now last fall I had to keep spinning the fan. Now today I had to spin the fan but then after about 10 minutes the fan would shut down. Leaving the compressor running.
Definitely time to replace them all. You will be amazed at how smoothly the compressor kicks on with new start and run caps.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge, very helpful.
Thanks for the details
Sir, i was looking to achieve this procedure...can you tell me what are the parts number for run and start and fan competitors so i can order them from Amazon....thanks
David
You will need to unplug, then disassemble your AC to read the values off the capacitors. Let me know when you have those values.
Thanks I just urged on the ac and no fan going to grab some caps Many Blessings
Let us know how it turns out!
@@DansWay lubed up the fan because it was like froze up and whamo now runs like a champ however I now have detailed pics of the components thanks Dan
@@JunkFam1 Ok, cool. I have seen fans get 'stuck' after a season of being unused. Like the bearings get frozen in place. Just nudging the fan a couple of turns sometimes is enough to get it moving again for the whole season.
I replaced all three capacitors. Specs of the new ones: 7.5 MFD 6% 370V, 45/5 MFD 6% 370V, and a 88-108 MFD 165 V. I did not replace the resistor. AC started up great after replacing capacitors. Left it running. Went back to check it and it was not blowing, just humming. Turned it off. (Two knobs on unit, no external thermostat) Tried to turn it back on and no fan. Just the hum. What should I do next? Thanks for the help!
Wow, seems like the motor cap is bad again. Could that be the case?
@@DansWay haha I have no idea. What would you recommend I do to figure that out? And which one of these is the motor capacitor? And any idea what would make that happen again so quickly?
You’ll want to follow the wires that go to the fan back to the wiring area. There you’ll see that one of them is going straight to a cap, or is indirectly connected to it. That is the one to replace.
@@DansWay right on. I’ll check it out & report back. Thanks
@@DansWay so it looks like it is the fan capacitor. I’ve ordered another one. I have a question though. The bigger capacitor that I bought to replace the 1499-573 45 uf capacitor, the new one has the three tabs like yours in the video. One of them is labeled fan. It only has one tab though for connection. Could I somehow wire the brown wire and brown with white stripe wire from the non working fan capacitor up to this one?
Do you have any videos diagnosing an RV AC that made a terrible sound and the quit?
Still not kicking on after replacement?
Ah man... That's not good... Could be the compressor really is done. Sorry!
My Duo therm only had the two capacitors, it is not kicking on. Is there any way to check to see if the compressor is done? Thank you
Thank you!
You're welcome!
Your video was stellar for helping us diagnose! THANK YOU! However, I'm having trouble finding a 45/12uf/370 capacitor for our 2005 Carrier A/C. (Yes, ancient, but up until a few weeks ago, it was running like a champ! Now it hums, but the fan won't kick over.) Capacitors are much cheaper than a whole new unit, so wondering how we go about replacing this. We opened her up and discovered the capacitor is a combo, so it has the three ports on top. The closest replacement I found on Amazon was a 45/10. Will that suffice? Any thoughts or help would be appreciated! Thanks!
Glad you found this helpful. You could likely get away with the 10uF vs. 12uF. You can also try splitting it up into two different caps if that helps you get the correct sizes.
@@DansWay - Thanks so much for the reply! Sorry, but I don't know anything about the electrical numbers side of things. How would I split this up into two different caps?
@@the2youngs you can get a 45uF cap and a 12uF cap. The wires going to the COM or common terminal of the existing capacitor would be split between the two new caps. The pairs of wires 'should' make it obvious which wires go to each cap. The motor-start for motor-run functions for example. I would start with the 45/10uF cap you found and if it works, then your done.
So our ac is not blowing out cold air but sounds like the fan is on. What could be the problem or idea of problems?
Could be a lot of things. Bad Compressor, bad thermostat or wiring, bad run capacitor... Does it make any compressor sounds at all? You will need to check the compressor to confirm it is receiving voltage. If so, then the cap could be problem.
@@DansWay hi! No the compressor isn’t coming on at all and we changed out both capacitors and still the same. We had a rv repair guy come out yesterday and he said we have to replace the whole ac unit on top of the rv..so that is sad news because it’s expensive and we were hoping it was just the compressor or something easily replaceable.
Oh man, so sorry it was dead! That is an expensive repair for sure. At least you now know the next step.
Great instructional video.
Could you offer a replacement suggestion for the following capacitor:
C65R. 60uf ±5% 370VAC.
I didn't find a suitable replacement in PowerWell Capacitors.
I would suggest you try this one. It has both the 60uF and a 5uF tap. You can ignore the 5uF tap, just use the 'COM' terminal and the terminal not labeled 'FAN' (likely it will say 'herm').
@@DansWay perfect.
Appreciate the extra information and advice.
I have what appears to be the same AC. The capacitors are good. The fan spins freely by hand. Neither the fan nor the compressor starts or makes any noise. The breaker is closed. There is voltage at the capacitors. Do you know if there is a reset button somewhere? or any other thoughts? Thank you!
Did you figure this out yet? Sounds like the thermostat itself is t working properly. I would start there. You can manually connect the wires together to trigger the fan or compressor.
@@DansWay There is no typical thermostat. It has 2 dials. 1 is rotated to turn to 4 selections, off, fan, low cool, high cool. With it turned off there is no voltage where the capacitors are. With it turned to fan, or low cool, or high cool, it is live where the capacitor wires are. The other dial is rotated to set cool, min to max. As it is rotated I can see the voltage output increase. at the wires plugged into the back of the dial.
@@DansWay my mothers airxcel 48000 was working last night but just shut off this morning and won't turn back on. Checked the breaker it's not flipped, fuse seems to be in tact. Not sure what's going on. 😕
Great video, thanks!
Hi Dan, you mentioned "if you have compressor start up issues, replace the pzt as well". Can you please specify what is the pzt? My rooftop coleman mach ac will make a buzzzing/humming noise but cant seem to kick on fully. I am about to purchase the run and start capacitors but not sure if I need to replace pzt? (what exactly is this?) Thanks for your help!!
The PZT is the small box connected to the top of one of the caps. Not likely to be the problem. I'd just start with the caps and see if it comes alive for you.
Awesome ! Got it ! I try the caps first and resort to replacing the “pzt” if the issue persists . Thanks for responding so quickly I appreciate it!
Awesome ! Ok got it ! I will try the caps first and resort to replacing the “pzt” should the issue persist. I appreciate your quick response . I will let you know if this works for me, thanks for the info and support
Hello Dan ,
So I successfully replaced all 3 caps but my unit still won’t fully turn on, I’m still hearing a buzzing/humming noise when I try to run the fan or AC on low or high. I did see you manually push you fan blades and it seemed to rotate smoothly on its on after your initial assistance. When I tried replicating that to my fan , I feel immediate resistance. Do you have any recommendations?
@@mrcperea13 If you are saying the fan doesn't smoothly spin, then your fan bearings are likely shot. It should easily spin by hand.
when im using gen power and my ac kicks in my surge protector gives a reverse polarity code. when the fan kicks off the code goes away. any idea how to trace to the problem? thank you
Good question. What brand/model of surge protector are you using? Could be a grounding issue...
Nicely done! Thank you!
Great video well done thank you!
Your very welcome! We’re you able to do this as well?
When we first bought our 5th wheel we noticed that nothing other than the fan would turn on. You had to turn it to cold and basically walk away. I understand these things have a delay but my times ranged from instant to up to 30 minutes before the compressor would start. Haven't fixed that yet but now last year the fan started acting up. Acting like it wasn't getting enough power, I had to take the inside cover off and give it a spin and then it would take off an go.
Fast forward to now. Still have to give the fan a good spin before it takes off and goes but then after about 10 minutes the fan shuts down. I believe I still hear the compressor running.
Is that something to do with the run capacitors? I bought all 3. Going to change them out tomorrow. I just keep thinking maybe the fan itself is bad and drawing too much and something shuts it down.
YES! These are all the symptoms of the run and start capacitors failing. Let me know how it works after replacing them. I can't explain the 30-minute startup time, but perhaps that will change as well. If you still have the 30-minute delay, check to see if the thermostat is giving a proper signal to engage the AC.
@@DansWay When we first got it you could hear something up top I think click. I was always able to turn the fan on and off. Auto it would only turn on when the comp fired up. Just did it whenever it felt like it but always would finally go. But now last fall and this summer I'm having this issue with the fan. Last fall I got it going by giving it a spin and it would run all day. This year when trying that, everything shuts down after 10 minutes or so and locks itself out. Have to wait about 5 to 10 minutes before the fan starts humming again. Give it a spin and it would take off. 5 to 10 minutes it will trip again. So far been hearing the fan drawing too much power, low volts, or bad capacitors. Guess we will find out tomorrow morning.
Had everything going several times Friday night. Now today the compressor wouldn't start again. Finally bypassed the thermostat and it fired right up. This whole time it's been nothing but a bad thermostat minus the actual fan problem. That was definitely a capacitor.
Ah man! Well I’m glad you now know the root cause.
Here’s my situation. The ac first started with an issue working just in fan and not on auto. I cleaned it well, vacuumed and worked well for about a month. Then started failing again, it would stop while running, like if it wasn’t getting enough power, or like when a camel is lose and doesn’t make good contact. I cleaned it again and this time I washed it as best as I could. It worked fine for a day, but today it started doing the same thing. Starts then loses power and goes off.
Do you think that’s the capacitor related issue?
Definitely worth a try! Those are some strange symptoms.
Thank you very helpful
Glad it was! Did you get your parts replaced, or are you going to soon? Let us know how it turns out!
Where can I find link for purchase. TIA
The description of this video includes a number of links to common caps. From there you can look closely for a match to the size and voltage you need.
Thanks
I'm glad it was helpful. Did you get your caps replaced?
What kind do I need for a dometic 2015 r-pod 179 please.
May need a capacitor not sure.
What about if the ac unit won't star even if your capacitors are good? Is there other things that could be bad
The breaker was replaced by a new one cause it burned
Next items to check is the thermostat, and finally the controller. Be sure the controller is sending the signal to turn on.
@@victordominguez4448 oh, that could be another problem, jammed, stuck compressor? If it keeps blowing, you could have a loose wire as well.
What brand/model is this AC unit? I have a Dometic Brisk Air duo therm. It looks very similar to the one in this video. Just wondering if I can go ahead and order these caps without climbing up on the roof first.
Honestly I wouldn’t chance it. If you don’t get the right ones, then you will have to go up again and deal with returning the wrong ones.
@@DansWay Good call.
@@DansWay My AC only has 1 capacitor, 45/5. My AC is doing the same thing yours, in this video, is doing. Compressor kicks on, Dan does not. With only 1 capacitor, do you still think it could be that? It stopped working after a power surge from my generator.
@@andrew-5077 Strange... I would think the fan would need a cap. Any chance there is a cap cover mounted to the motor itself? Follow the wires back. Also, check that there is voltage getting to the fan at all. If not, the problem could be a damaged/disconnected thermostat wire. Worst case it is the controller circuit board inside the AC unit.
When the Coleman mach when it run does good but when it stop hot air come back Thur vent what caused that 3 years old
How can u tell if it's a thermostat what the sign
What number is the little square after the capacitor? Because on my I can't see the numbers
Hey Ruben, at 5:05 you can read the label which says WSX-5ACM Motor Start.
Thank you for your help. Is very helpful video thanks again
Replaced mine and it still doesn't start. Just a small click can be heard every few min as the AC "thinks" about starting
I replaced the smaller of the 2 capacitors and the fan still won't work. Could it be the larger capacitor??
The AC compressor makes a humming sound but no fan.
Try following the wires back to the fan. There should only be one cap connected between the two fan wires. Check for power on those leads to be sure your system is even sending power to the fan. Does the fan spin freely?
@@DansWay yes, there is power to the fan wires at the capacitor and the fan spins freely.
I went ahead and ordered the large capacitor also.
Dan, great video. I have a year 2000 motorhome with Dometic reverse cycle a/c and my forward unit's fan will only operate on high. The a/c or heat works but the fan will not come on in low or auto but only high. These units are using the old 4 button controller. Would you think this is a capacitor issue or something else? Many thanks!
If you start it on high then switch to low, does it completely stop or sorta slow down making noise? If it just stops dead it sounds more like an electrical issue, like a broken wire or bad relay in the controller. Doesn’t hurt to replace caps on the motor and compressor after 20 years. I found that my compressor runs and starts much more smoothly after replacement, and that wasn’t why I was up there.
@@DansWay Thanks for the reply. Starting on high and then switching doesn't do anything for it will immediately kill the fan. One person I spoke with seems to think that it's the control board gone bad but I don't know ....... what is your opinion on that?
@@bobgodfrey9524 sounds like a bad controller, but could still be wiring to the controller on the wall thermostat. Does the compressor continue to run, or does the whole thing shut down? Not sure if that info would be helpful. Definitely need to get a meter on the control board to see what’s going on.
@@DansWay Yes, compressor still runs but of course I'm concerned about damaging it if the fan isn't on. Fan does nothing in auto or low setting but everything works fine in high fan setting.
@@bobgodfrey9524 I am having this same issue with mine at the moment did you ever get it fixed? I can hear the compressor and it turns on but my fan doesn’t spin anymore. Like yours mine used to only work on high and when put on low would sound a little squeaky like the fan was having trouble getting a push. Everything turns on still but the fam doesn’t spin even with a manual push. Tia
So on mine all I hear is pound humm the fan feels free but does not spin ..it spins with my hand but no go
So, the capacitor on mine "should" look the same as the one with the VR. VR is literally toast, lol! My question is, mine says 43-52 MFD. Is it going to make a big difference on the MFD numbers if I replace it with the linked combo?
Also, the link description states that it only works for Coleman AC, did they buy duo therm maybe?
Hey Eric, You definitely need the numbers to be in the same range (don't go 35 or 60MFD). You can use combined or separate as long as the values are a close match.

Thanks. I hope it was helpful.
I replaced the caps but my fan will not start by it’s self. I help it, all works. Any ideas?
Does it start if you spin it manually at first? If so, does the fan move freely?
@@DansWay yes, if I spin it works great! The fan spins freely no binding.
@@TheOfficialWickedOne Ok, does it spin up to full speed if you give it a push start, or is it totally dead?
@@DansWay works as it should from the factory. When I turn on the unit I get a humm. If I literally breath on the fan it starts, runs properly until the ac reaches desired temp. Then will not start again unless I spin the fan. The fan is not hard to turn. Bearings feel good. The shaft of the motor has been lubed. I appreciate the help.
And yes spins at full speed
The air is coming out of the return and not the supply. What do I do?
Oh wow, not sure how that is possible. Perhaps the start capacitor is bad so it starts up backwards? Crazy... Did it used to work normally? If so, I'd replace the caps and see if that changes things. Amazon has a good return policy!
Exelent😃
I’ve replaced everything and still nothing. Why.
What is it doing now? Any noise, movement, etc? Could it be that the compressor failed?
