Dual Run Capacitor
The capacitor provides the electrical phase-shift required to generate starting torque in the compressor motor. If the microfarad (uF) rating drops below the tolerance threshold, the motor laminations vibrate at line frequency without rotating, creating a loud electromagnetic hum. Because the compressor is not rotating, the refrigeration cycle cannot occur, resulting in the system blowing warm air.
