THE BLOWER MOTOR CAPACITOR
The blower motor capacitor is located below
the air duct at the indicated location. It is in
use any time the blower (vent) motor is oper-
ating. The capacitor helps to maintain a con-
stant voltage to the blower motor so that it
runs more efficiently.
TESTING
1. Set the ohmmeter to the
R x 10K
scale.
2. Measure across the capacitor terminals.
The ohmmeter should indicate several
ohms, then gradually return to infinity.
