i was able to bring the capacitor up to work and measure it. it says 400-440 MFD on the side. we deduced that actually means 400-440 mFD. it measures in the nFD range. The terminals are not dead shorted to each other. So i guess the capacitor is bad?
the wires the hook to the capacitor measure 4 ohms without the capacitor hooked up as you guys predicted.
Is there anything else i can check before I buy a capacitor? Am i right in thinking that if the capacitor is the only thing wrong, then it probably should have started with the pull cord?
