Years ago before I knew better, I had One Hour Heating & Air work on my AC. They charged me $400 for a capacitor. I didn't know any better and was happy to have air conditioning again so I paid it. After they left, I looked up capacitors and what they cost
Feel good that they did not say you needed a whole new unit, seems that is their answer to just about any service call

You didn’t pay $400 for a Capacitor, you paid $400 for not having to touch anything and for the knowledge the service guy had that you didn’t have.

What is causing capacitors to go out? I’ve been owning houses 41 years now and I’ve never had a capacitor go out.
Current house ,we built in 2020 and had to have unit replaced after 14 years because it wasn’t cooling but otherwise I’ve never had unit quit working except power outages.
Same. Owned two houses over the past 21 years and didn't even know AC capacitors going out was a thing until reading this post.
