I have a 15 year old Carrier tech2000ss which first required service a year ago to replace the starting capacitor - the replacement failed in a couple of days and the tech said it was a poor quality capacitor and replaced it with a better one. Well, its a year later and the starting cap failed again. The tech said this was indicative of the compressor going bad and that the next stop was a "hard start" - which might make the compressor go faster. I've got some guys coming to give estimates next week and was looking for some confirmation here that it is indeed a problem with the compressor.
Thanks
