re: Why does my AC at home go out every year but my car one never does?

You must have POS Trane like me.

Hey man nothing stops a trane! Or is that a train?

That’s the whole premise of a two stage

Finally had to replace my AC unit a few years ago. You don’t realize how shitty your AC system is until you replace it with a new one

Do car ACs even have capacitors?

I'm pretty sure in car AC systems, the compressor is typically driven by the engine via a belt and a clutch, which engages when the AC is turned on.

With that said, getting the capacitor on your home AC system change out shouldn't be that expensive.
