- BOJACK 70+5uF 70/5MFD ±6% 370V/440V CBB65 Dual Run Circular Start Capacitor for AC Motor Run or Fan Start or Condenser Straight Cool or Heat Pump air Conditioner

So my AC goes out in the middle of July and the handy man has to get a replacement because he doesn't have any in stock. Its burning hot and you got complaining kids, so what do you do? Find the replacement yourself. After doing some research, I found I could do this repair myself AND save myself roughly $300.00. So who wouldn't roll the dice on this. I purchased it and it was literally at my house the next evening before my HVAC dude even got his stock replenished with the capacitor I needed. I photographed the part and wires then did the replacement myself. Praise be, cause the AC kicked back on and cold air was flowing again. Its been three months now and my AC is still working as it should. And before you ask, yes I purchased a spare... just in case.

This cap saved me a lot of headache at my inlaw's house. They were gone on a trip and the AC was not working properly. We live in a hot climate and their cats were inside as the temperature kept rising. Naturally, this happened on a Friday and the earliest a technician could come out was the following week. I needed to either get the cats out of the house or replace the capacitor quickly. Thankfully, I found a slightly smaller cap on another unit on the property and substituted it in. (I would not recommend this unless you really know what you are doing.) The issue was, no local store in a 25mi radius carried a 70 microfarad capacitor... I called around and drove to every store I could think of. This was ordered at night and delivered the following day. After putting all capacitors back in place, we were up and running with no threat to life! Not that it matters but I found the name pretty funny too. Thanks Bojack! Would order again. I know it has lasted at least 6 months, but I cannot say as to the longevity of the product as a whole. I did test it with a capacitance meter and it was within an acceptable tolerance. :) Technician approved.

Such an EASY to fix solution for my AC!! This is EXACTLY what I needed and it was incredibly easy to install! And the price was wonderful!

These capacitors last in average several years, so I can't determine longevity. I've been using it in my AC outside unit for a few months, so far it has been working fine.

If your exterior unit fan or compressor stops working, there is a very high probability it's the capacitor which died and need to be replaced (specially if looking like mine in the picture). Provided you're comfortable with electrical work, unplug your unit, order a replacement with exactly the 2 labelled cap values, e.g 7-70uF, and replug. AMZN was able to deliver it in 10 hours overnight and this model is straightforward to reconnect. AC is back on, and wife is less unhappy.

Good Product, Good Price, Fast Delivery, Thank You

When my central air started acting up I went out to check the unit and the fan motor was not spinning. Took a pencil and pushed one of the fan blades, and it began running and pumping cool air into the house. This told me that the capacitor had failed. The capacitor is the most common issue with central A/C units. Normally, you will be charged somewhere between $200-$300 for the part and labor. For $20 I ordered this part and replaced it in about 10 minutes. By coincidence, my A/C person was coming by the next day for a routine maintenance. Showed him the capacitor and according to him, he has used this brand and is a very good quality part. Once thing, if you are going to replace it yourself. Although, is just a few screws. You need to be aware that capacitors store electricity and need to be discharged before coming in contact with any of the 3 terminals. Failure to do so will give you a might big electrical, I would suggest watching some online videos and familiarizing yourself with the process. It is truly a very simple job, but you need to discharge the capacitor first. Again, you can spend $20 and do it yourself or pay $300 and let someone else do it for you. I purchased a spare one as the lifetime of an A?C capacitor is about 5 years.

Replaced soon as I noticed the A/C start up, but fan not spinning, works great now.
