    @OldSnakeKonovesis Run capacitors haven’t a negative and positive ends. They have a common side and a side where the motor is connected.

    Great videos!!!! I was wondering if you ever removed a heat pump and installed a straight a/c condenser (outside) and used the heat strips in the existing heat pump air handler for heating? This is what I am trying to accomplish. What wires do I need to change inside the air handler and t-stat to make this work?

    Thanks for watching. I’m sorry that I don’t understand your question.

    Great video. I have blown 2 defrost boards on a new ducane heat pump I installed. The unit ran fine all summer. Heat season it runs for one week then it dies each board lasted a week. What if I failed to connect the G wire. Is this utilized in DF mode? I know the fan won’t operate in the always on mode. Now I’m wondering if it is causing my DF board problems. Any thoughts?

    The new motor might have a brown wire and a brown wire with a white stripe. Connect the brown wire to one terminal and the brown/white wire to the other terminal. Do not connect any other wires to the new run capacitor.

    Hello Jim, your …
    Hello Jim, your video was informative. I happen to replace my motor and the store also gave me a new run capacitor . It’s oval with only 2 terminals instead of the 3 terminals I had on the old one. It has no label or marks for Fan, Herm and C. How do I connect this back with the new motor? Thanks.

    I usually won’t install a hard start kit unless the local electric company is famous for brown outs or if the compressor won’t seem to start without one. I don’t have a good answer for you as to giving the compressor longevity.

  14. rolandvz71 says:

    I understand I …
    I understand I could have a start up CAPACITOR installed to aid in heavy amp draw on the compressor. From I gather this will also help my electric bill and extend the life of my compressor as well…….. Is this correct??

    I like your videos Jimmy Z. Keep up the good work. I’m in tech school taking up HVAC, next year I’ll probably be out on the field.

    The red wire that’s connected to the common side of the run capacitor is feed from the T1, which is the load side of the contactor.

    Very nicely done Doc. I am looking foward to part 3. Quick question, where was the red wire that looked like it was hooked to common going?

    FYI, before I do any work on a system I take a medium sized paint brush and dust all the dirt and cob webs out of the system, it makes things so much easier to read and keeps bugs and such out of the contactor. :-)

    Why do people …
    Why do people without any HVAC experience think they can trouble shoot a system? You should tell them how much it hurts to get bot by a capacitor or the damage they can cause by mis-wiring a unit.

    I once went to a home where the home owner handed me a box of wires and parts, he took everything out and one by one took it to a store for testing, it happened to be a bad capacitor but my bill for hooking it back up was 10x the cost of the original repair. (24 years exp in Phoenix)

    I had the disconnnect to the condensing unit off. The hum that you hear is just the contactor coil that was energized. It gets its power from the air handler.

    Jim was the power on when you made this video, you could hear the hum.
