    Sounds like a plan. If the cap doesn't do it, I will then go about replacing the fan.

    I also updated the original post as I referenced run and meant to say fan.

    Correct - Combo capacitor. I checked all three sides and they tested out ok, but I will buy a new capacitor and try it since its only $20

    Heat Pump Electrical Problem - Need Electrical experts

    Team - I know enough to be dangerous, but I need another set of eyes on this. I have a aquacomfort heat pump. The pump is 4 years old and after starting it up today for the first time I noticed that the compressor is kicking on, but the Fan is not. I gave it a love tap and then it started...

    Recommendation for Automation

    I have a 27' AGP with a single speed pump and I follow the TFP method of using liquid chlorine. This year I would like to transition to a VSP and install a salt water system. At the moment I have a manual timer that runs the single speed pump. It appears that I have a few different solutions...

    Low pH and high Alk

    I opened my pool for the year and its been running for 2 weeks. It's crystal clear and ran all my tests this weekend, but not sure what the right approach should be to correct the pH without adding more Alk. Any thoughts? pH - 6.6 Alk - 90 FC - 6.0 CA - 30 CH - 75 This is an above ground...
