Hi All,
On this parts diagram

Page 9, item 32, the capacitor. Where is that thing attached? In back of the compressor?
And to what terminals does it go?
Many thanks,

Found it. It is on the relay. Makes sense. Mine seems to be all melted together

Side of terminal box on compressor. Start relay.
Y'welcome.
I don't know where it is, but at least one of the wires has to be connected to the motor. That's how I'd find it.
It's possible to test it with a cheater cord, a resistor, a meter, and a calculator.
.... never mind
I didn't see the answers.

And I actually had it in my hand the day I measured the coil resistances on the compressor. Didn't know what it was.
In my defense, the parts diagram shows the capacitor (#32) with a screw through it (#56) and that is not the case. The diagram also shows some weird parts (#13, 15, #12) for the reply that look nothing like the actual part.
The YouTube video looks exactly like what I have.
