Hey everyone, so my Dometic penguin 13.5 btu ac unit (600315.321) works great but sometimes the fan motor won’t start, or it does starts and runs for 5-10 minutes before slowing down and stopping. I’ve read that the run capacitor could be the culprit. I already took off the shroud and can move the fan easily by hand. I found a part number for the run capacitor and picked it up but it is a 20uf + 5uf when the original capacitor is a 20 + 10. I plugged in the capacitor but the fan still wouldn’t start just like usual. I’ll attach a pic of each capacitor. Should I try replacing the start capacitor as well? OR....is the motor just bad.... lol.
