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,

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.

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.

.... 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.
