Buying it as the kit gives you the factory specified part rather than a near match. The part record doesn't name the appliance, so confirm 427906P on your appliance's parts list, or match the 4.7uF and 400V markings on the old capacitor, before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhat a failed motor capacitor looks like\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eA capacitor gives a single phase motor the boost it needs to start and keeps it turning smoothly in the right direction. When it loses capacitance or fails open, the motor may hum without turning, start only now and then, run hot or slow, or turn the wrong way. Some failures are obvious, with a bulging, split or scorched case, but others only show up on a test instrument. P2 is a safety class for motor capacitors, meaning it's designed to fail open circuit without a fire or shock hazard.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGenuine Fisher \u0026amp; Paykel part number 427906P\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacitance 4.7uF\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRated 400V\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eP2 safety protection class\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSupplied as a kit\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ctable class=\"part-specs\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eCapacitance\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e4.7uF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eVoltage\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e400V\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eSafety class\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eP2\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting the capacitor kit\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch the appliance off at the wall and unplug it. Before touching the old capacitor, discharge it safely, as it can hold a charge. Photograph the connections so the wires go back on the same terminals, mount the new capacitor firmly so it can't vibrate, and keep leads clear of moving parts and hot surfaces. Test the appliance through a full cycle.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eCan I use a generic 4.7uF capacitor instead?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eA generic part may work if the capacitance, voltage, safety class, size and terminals all match, but the 427906P kit is the factory specified option.
