Yes you can as long as the replacement matches the originals in capacity and voltage rating. Most units have a dual, not separate capacitors anyway.Thank you, can I replace with a dual to make sure both are replaced? Provided it is a capacitor.
Do you hear the contactor "click"? If not , verify you have voltage applied to the contactor's coil.
I change the cap and contactor out every ten years. If you do that, you likely will never have a breakdown.
