Inspection of Capacitor
J.
Remove the five (5) screws from the control
board on the control panel assembly. Remove
the control board.
11. Inspection of Capacitor (Fan Motor and
Compressor)
Ohmeter Method – Set the ohmeter to the 100K
Ω
range. Place the two probes against the two
terminals of the capacitor. At first, the ohmeter
should indicate 0
Ω
, then the reading should
gradually increase towards infinity (
∞
). This
indicates that the capacitor is charging. If the
reading indicates infinity right away (shorted) or
the ohmeter fails to move from 0
Ω
(open), replace
the capacitor.
12. Capacitance Tester Method
Using a capacitance tester and the chart on page
15, test the capacitor for the value indicated. If
the value tested is not within 10% of indicated
capacitance, replace the capacitor.
Warning: Properly discharge the capacitor(s)
before testing and after testing has been com-
pleted. Failure to do so could cause damage to
test equipment or the unit and/or result in per-
sonal injury (electrical shock) or death.
