Being universal, it isn't tied to one appliance maker. What matters is that the value, voltage rating, size and terminal style suit the motor you're working on. Check those details on the label of your old capacitor, then confirm they line up with CAP025 before ordering.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eIs the capacitor stopping your motor from starting?\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eMotors with a run capacitor rely on it to get turning and to keep running at full strength. Over time the internal film breaks down and the capacitance falls, so the motor loses torque. Common symptoms include a loud hum at switch on, a motor that needs a push before it spins, sluggish running, overheating, or a protective cut-out switching it off. If the case is bulged, split or leaking, don't refit it. A capacitance test will show whether the reading has fallen below 25uF.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003ePart details\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCapacitance 25uF (25 microfarad)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRun capacitor type\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGeneric universal replacement\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStock code CAP025\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\u003e25uF\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003cth\u003eType\u003c\/th\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eRun capacitor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eFitting a 25uF run capacitor\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSwitch off and isolate the supply, then safely discharge the old capacitor before you touch it. Note which wire goes to which terminal, and fit the replacement the same way. Secure it with the original bracket or strap. Use a capacitor with the same 25uF value and an equal or higher voltage rating. Anything hard-wired needs a licensed electrician.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eQuestions about this part\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eMy old capacitor says 25uF but is a different shape. Will CAP025 still work?\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eElectrically it can, as long as the value matches and the voltage rating is equal or higher. Shape matters for mounting, so check it fits the space and the bracket, and that the terminals suit your wiring.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Universal","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44549104435278,"sku":"CAP025_G","price":24.5,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"url":"https:\/\/partsshop.com.au\/products\/cap025-generic-run-capacitor-25uf","provider":"My Store","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
