Your motor won't start, it's drawing current like it's pulling a trailer, or the torque just isn't there. That capacitor has most likely let go, and it's the first thing to check. This 6µF 400VAC run/start capacitor is the direct replacement. Match it to the value on your motor's nameplate and you're back up. Fit the wrong microfarad rating and your starting torque shifts, so double-check before you order. One part, one fix, sorted
