Capacitor Failure Warning Signs

Recognizing these symptoms early can prevent complete system breakdown and costly compressor damage

1

Hard Starting

If your AC struggles to start or makes humming noises, the capacitor may be failing to provide the necessary electrical boost.

2

Intermittent Cooling

Random shutdowns or inconsistent cooling often indicate a capacitor that can't maintain proper voltage.

3

Visible Bulging

A swollen or leaking capacitor case is a clear visual sign of failure that requires immediate replacement.

4

Fan Not Spinning

If the outdoor fan won't start but you hear humming, the fan capacitor has likely failed.
