Noticed one of my A/C units sounded like it was having a hard time starting up, or struggling I should say. Didn't sound right. Compressor good, the primary capacitor for the compressor read 18.3 microfarads on the meter. Seemed way too low to me. The owners manual doesn't specify the details I desire. Owner's manuals now a days are written for Walmart shoppers. Today, owners manuals tell you not put plug in the toaster while in the bathtub.

Anyways, capacitor replaced. Much better I feel, I likes. For folks around the Lafayette area, Teche Electric is excellent for specific components. For electronic items I prefer Ralph's Electronics on Cameron Street. Don't get me wrong, love Lowe's, but they don't carry specific items I am looking for sometimes when it becomes technical. Not sure if Walmart carries such items.

Lesson learned - if something doesn't appear right - tend to it before it fails.
