HVAC Capacitor Replacement and Wiring Repair in Henderson

When a Henderson homeowner noticed inconsistent cooling and system startup issues, they called Bob’s Repair to take a look. Upon inspection, our technician identified multiple failed capacitors and tangled, unsafe wiring that required immediate attention. To restore reliable performance, we completed a full capacitor replacement and rewired the system for long-term safety and efficiency.

What We Found

During our diagnostic, we discovered that multiple capacitors were either completely non-functional or had readings far outside the acceptable range. These failing components were directly affecting the compressor and outdoor fan performance. Additionally, the wiring inside the condenser unit was disorganized, with twisted, uninsulated ends and improper routing that posed both a safety hazard and a reliability issue.

How We Fixed It

We replaced all failed capacitors with high-quality Titan HD units, including both 45+10 MFD and 70+10 MFD models, designed for optimal performance under high-temperature conditions. Each new capacitor was properly mounted and tested after installation. We also reorganized and secured the internal wiring using zip ties and terminal connectors, removing any loose or frayed wires and ensuring clear paths for future maintenance.

🚀 The Result

With the new capacitors installed and the wiring fully restructured, the HVAC system is now operating at full strength. Startup is smooth, cooling is consistent, and the electrical components are secure and protected. This upgrade not only corrected the immediate cooling issue but also extended the life of the system. All parts are covered under our 3-year warranty, as long as no tampering or third-party modifications occur.
