Hope you weren't to close to it when it blew. That's as bad as it gets

Your booster pump capacitor also went bad and almost exploded. You probably had a lightning strike or other surge.

Very common to see in air conditioning units. Slight power surge or really no reason at all. Newer run capacitors are garbage, buy 2 so you have a spare.
