Fan Capacitor for Coleman Air Conditioners 1499-5461

My generator fan would not start up. If the AC was running I could start the fan by hand and it work fine. There were 3 capacitors in the unit and I replaced this one. Worked like a charm!

Our Travel Trailer A/C had stopped working and it was not the Fuse or a Breaker. Luckily there was a Fantastic YouTube video that led me replacing this part & Eureka!! The A/C is running good as new again

I used this in my Coleman Mach III A/C unit for my popup camper. I read blogs and other articles that said if your A/C fan doesn't turn on when you turn it on but you can hear the motor humming and the compressor working then you most likely need a new capacitor for the fan. I took a risk and ordered this after removing the current capacitor to find the model and specs. When I removed the A/C shroud I found on the inside panel the wiring diagram and wire colors that were connecting to the fan run capacitor and that's how I knew which part was the one in question. Thankfully when I connected this new one it began working again! This wasn't hard to do and it saved me a lot of time and money.One note of caution, an electrician friend told me that after removing the old capacitor to be careful and not accidentally touch both sets of terminals because it can give a shock since capacitors store electricity. I just made sure to wear gloves and then connected both terminals with a screw driver. In my case since the capacitor was old and needing replacement it didn't have much charge so I was fine, but just a word of caution here. Also, I am not and don't claim to be an expert in anything electric.

Easy to install...Make sure- turn off or unplug the landside power...(common sense) be sure to study the way the previous one is installed. I am going to buy a few extra. AC man almost had me for 1,300$ Still working however its normal for these to expire.

Good product

This was not my problem but it went in without a hitch.My unit was silent, no humming, nothing. Ended up being a bad terminal connection, at the control board under the cover and inside the exchanger box of the roof A/C unit on the RV. Simply moving the connector on its mating spade made it work. Argg! Light corrosion causing intermittent problem. Life in an RV.Replacing this item is relatively easy but involves dangerous heights and exposure to severe electric shock if done incorrectly.EXTREME caution needs to exercised when performing the task.

My ac works again, yay.

Perfect replacement. Easy installation and working well. This is for the fan motor only in the AC, but I also replaced the compressor capacitor at the same time, so as not to have to repeat disassembly of the AC shroud and capacitor cover, and avoid climbing to the roof of the RV.
