About 6 months ago I had my downstairs package unit serviced for a reason I don't recall right now and it's worked fine, until I tried to turn on the AC for the first time this year. The blower motor turns on but the compressor kind of clicks occasionally and never starts. "Capacitor" is always the word you hear when the service guy comes so I figured I'd check that first. If I'm looking at this right, the compressor isn't even connected??? There's two leads on Common and two on Fan and thats it According to the wiring diagram the yellow wire is supposed to go to the Herm term, would I be wrong to just swap it over? I tested capacitance and everything checks out fine. Forum Hussy fucked around with this message at 08:11 on Apr 3, 2020 |

I switched it over and turned everything back on, the compressor kicked on but the condenser fan didn't. I checked the capacitance values with a voltmeter and they were within spec the first time, then I couldn't get a reading from the fan side after that. I'm going to replace the capacitor and hope I don't have to get the fan motor swapped out too
