Replaced the capacitor and all has been running cool again for about a week. Replaced my neighbor’s too. Theirs stopped working again after 48 hrs. One more replacement on theirs and we’re at 72 hrs of runtime since replacement.

the symptom is either the fan won’t run, or the compressor won’t run.
these are typically dual eated capacitors. eg 25/5. the 25 powers the compressor, and the 5 would power the fan. both, or one of those can fail resulting in nothing running, or the system straining to turn over
