Installed and worked as it should - three thumbs up

My outside AC unit stopped functioning. What was happening is it would hum but the fan would spin. The fan motor would get very hot and then the unit would just shut off. At one point to diagnose it, when it went to go on and it was humming I took a stick and pushed the fan blades to see if they were stuck. It started spinning fine then. After doing some research it lead to the capacitor being bad. It holds an electrical charge and when the machine is turned on, it gives the motor that boost it needs to start up. Kind of like kickstarting a manual car with a bad starter.Not wanting to spend an fortune on a service call, I opened the side panel up with 3 screws and read the values on the current capacitor. I ordered the same value AC capacitor here for real cheap. So cheap it wouldn't be a bad idea to get another one as a spare.To install it, I just took a picture of the current one to see which color wires go where. There was also a wiring diagram on the inside panel. The terminals fit perfectly and it's just a metal strap with a screw to hold the capacitor in place. Once hooked up, in the disconnect box I flipped the jumper and then went back inside and turned back on the circuit breaker to the unit. I called for AC and it started right up!Problem solved. This was in a Goodman 2.5 ton outdoor AC unit that was installed in the fall of 2011. So the original part lasted 11 years.

No

Works Well, Lasted 1 Year

Great

This saved me at least 200 dollars from having to pay an AC company for overpriced parts. Easy to install just follow the plugs in the original over to the new piece and it works great.

Had replaced a similar one years ago. Works well.

Electrically, a perfect replacement for my Trane XVi air conditioner. As others have mentioned, it's a little bit smaller in diameter than the original GE capacitor, but that just meant putting in some two-sided tape to make the clamp hold it. Durability gets four stars until I get at least two cooling seasons out of it to know if it'll hold up as well as the 17-year-old dual-farad starter capacitor it replaced. However, after a month of summertime use, it works without a problem.

Easy to install, reasonably priced, Durability is yet to be seen!

Same day delivery and a few minutes plug and play and the AC is back in business. A $20 repair that took maybe 2 min. Who knows what a repair company would've charged let alone when I would be able to get on the schedule.

This is one of the most replaced items on a nonfunctional ac unit learn how to evaluate it with a digital meter and replace it yourself and save several hundred dollars and weeks of down time

Replaced the parts on my A/C unit with this and it works really great. It fixed my issue.

I noticed that my system wasn't cooling and the liquid line into the evaporator was hot. I looked at the condenser unit and found the fan wasn't running. It was also very hot. I got the fan started by pushing it but I would come back and find it running backwards. I found a parts manual online and ordered the capacitor and received and installed it the next day and it resolved the issue

It worked perfectly, our air conditioner has worked great since it was installed.

I bought this capacitor as a spare in case my air conditioning goes out. This is the usual part that fails.

Same brand my HVAC guy would have supplied

Fast to receive and worked good.

Always good to have a couple on hand just in case! Perfect

Replaced a 23 year old capacitor and this one is working fine!As for durability, well, I don't think the entire unit will last for another 23 years, so...

Very easy to hook up
