A C Capacitor
Item 1205158 model 124040.
A c capacitor. The ac capacitor gives your ac system the initial boost it needs to turn on and also provides continuous power for it to keep running. An ac capacitor also called a run capacitor is a small cylindrical object that sends energy to the motor that powers an air conditioning system. Those motors are known as permanent split capacitor motors. If this capacitor fails what will often happen is the motor either won t start it will run backwards it will run hot it will run inefficient.
