CAPACITOR CAP

Part 18-2200-38 is the replacement reference for the Capacitor Cap when the installed component needs to be swapped. It’s a capacitor replacement and is typically sourced after the failed capacitor cap is confirmed. Compare the failed capacitor cap to part 18-2200-38 and confirm mounting and connection style prior to installation. Because it supports starting and running torque for motors or compressors, faults here can create clear, repeatable symptoms. When this capacitor starts to fail, you may see slow spin-up, startup trip, and weak startup. Because the capacitor cap influences how the unit runs, symptoms may worsen under normal load. Technicians typically verify the fault before ordering the replacement. Service verification for the capacitor cap often includes: confirm the connected motor/compressor spins freely; measure capacitance and inspect for bulging. Using part 18-2200-38 after diagnosis fixes the issue at the source instead of masking the symptom. After diagnosis, the last step is a correct replacement and post-repair test. Compare the old capacitor cap to part 18-2200-38, install with standard service practices, then verify with a test cycle. Replacing the confirmed failed capacitor cap with part 18-2200-38 often resolves the complaint and stabilizes operation. Keep the removed part nearby for a quick side-by-side comparison during installation. Document the symptom and the post-repair test result for future service history. Keep the removed part nearby for a quick side-by-side comparison during installation. Inspect related components so the new part isn’t exposed to the same stress that damaged the original. If the unit has multiple revisions, confirm the exact configuration to avoid mismatched parts. Keep the removed part nearby for a quick side-by-side comparison during installation. After the first test cycle, recheck hardware and connectors to confirm everything remains secure. Keep the removed part nearby for a quick side-by-side comparison during installation.
