Anyone know where I can get parts for my Amana heat pump? It is a model RHA24B2D. From my best diagnosis the run capacitor is shot. The fan motor works fine when I hooked to my 220 line so I know it is Ok. The low voltage side seems on as well.  When the fan should be running it won't, unless you help is start moving then it keeps going. I have read this is a run capacitor issue.

Any help would be great!

CC Dickson or Johnstone supply -  a few of each around metro atlanta, IIRC.  Bring the run cap in with you, and they should be able to get you a replacement for pretty cheap.

Mark the cap wires and draw yourself a little wiring diagram before you take the cap off.

Where you at?  Dickson downtown wont sell to homeowners. Try Grainger. the capacitor will have a rating on it such as: 5 mfd at 370 vac. That is what you need to go by.

edited for ga public school education. I call them cowpastures anyway. Dispatcher love that.

I think your correct with the cap diagnosis.
Fox appliance will sell you one if the others won't
ETA Fro beat me to it.

Where are you at and what is the microfarad rating?

Given the recent videos I have seen I would NOT take any HVAC advice from WGTactical.

I live near Canton and work in Union City. The existing capacitor is a GE 97F9833. I see Fox appliance seems to carry stuff I need but I would like to find something closer to Canton or Union City.
