Function & Importance of the Start Capacitor

The start capacitor plays a critical role in the washer’s motor operation:

• Provides a temporary boost of electrical energy to the motor at startup

• Ensures the washer drum begins spinning efficiently

• Contributes to smooth motor operation and prevents overheating

• Maintains cycle integrity and overall washer performance

Using a Genuine OEM W10804664 capacitor guarantees the correct electrical specifications and durability required for safe, consistent operation. Aftermarket or incorrect capacitors may result in motor damage, repeated startup failures, or safety hazards.

Common Symptoms of a Faulty Start Capacitor

Replacing the start capacitor is often necessary when a washer exhibits the following issues:

• Washer fails to start or drum does not spin

• Motor hums but fails to initiate rotation

• Washer stalls at the beginning of a cycle

• Repeated circuit breaker trips or unusual buzzing sounds

• Visible burn marks, swelling, or leakage on the capacitor

Will replacing this part fix your issue?
Yes—if the motor isn’t starting or the drum won’t spin, a faulty start capacitor is frequently the cause, and replacing it usually restores proper operation.
