  3. Capacitor check.
  a. Make sure the ca pac i tor is 

dis 

charged. Use extreme 

caution as a spark might 

occur.

  b.  Disconnect  the  ca pac i tor 

leads and connect an analog-

type volt-ohmmeter to the 

capacitor terminals.

  c. Set the meter on the 

RX1,000 scale to check the 

start ca pac i tor. Set the meter 

on the RX10,000 scale to 

check  the  run  ca pac i tor.

 d. 

The meter should 

 

in di cate low ohms when it 

is first connected, but as 

the  ca pac i tor  becomes 

charged (by the meter), it 

will return to a read ing of  

infinity (open circuit).

  4. Start relay check.
  a. Check the coil re sis tance It 

should be 3,000 to 15,000 

ohms.

  b. Install a clamp on amp 

meter around the start 

 

wind ing  lead.

  c. Set the amp meter scale to 

at least 2 times the pump 

motor full load current.

  d. Place the H-O-A switch in 

the Hand position to start 

the pump.

  e. The meter should read 

ap prox i mate ly  2  times  full 

load current during starting. 

  f. After the motor has started 

(within one sec 

ond) the 

 

cur rent should drop to a 

value much less than full 

load  cur rent.
