Just ordered a spare AC capacitor per HokieinTampa's advice -- 76 B210 07/20/2017 08:45AM

My guy has several in his truck. Plus I have 1 unit not running -- 48zip 07/20/2017 09:10AM

As HokieinTampa says $100+ and hours of waiting -- 76 B210 07/20/2017 09:17AM

How do you safely discharge a capacitor? -- EDGEMAN 07/20/2017 10:18AM

I've never seen anyone do it, but I've heard bad stories. ** -- 48zip 07/20/2017 10:26AM

A bad capacitor is unlikely to have much charge if any anyway ** -- 76 B210 07/20/2017 10:59AM

Makes sense, but how do you know until..... -- 48zip 07/20/2017 11:09AM

$12-20 now vs $100+ and hours of waiting later. -- HokieinTampa 07/20/2017 09:09AM

There's generally a disconnect outside he can pull, too. ** -- 48zip 07/20/2017 09:11AM

(Dr Evil voice): riiiiiiiight are you calling a breaker a disconnect? -- HokieinTampa 07/20/2017 09:21AM

Breaker is in the panel on the inside. A disconnect is outside. -- 48zip 07/20/2017 09:29AM

Interesting... down here it's just a 100A breaker mounted right above. ** -- HokieinTampa 07/20/2017 09:34AM

Mine has a fuse in the disconnect outside as well ** -- 76 B210 07/20/2017 09:38AM

Right, a fuse. A breaker is different, but I'm nitpicking. -- 48zip 07/20/2017 09:56AM

They're melting down like m&ms this week ** -- HokieJamie 07/20/2017 09:04AM
