I am attempting to install the SPP6 right now and need some clarification on installation. The instructions simply say to install it 'over the run capacitor'. I have a call into supco tech support but no reply.
Which of these is the run capacitor, and which terminals are used? The SPP6 has two wires, one of which has a single spade connector, and the other a piggy-back type spade connector.
Edited: I think I figured it out but sent the pictures to supco for confirmation.
It helps if you look at the schematic on the back of the access panel... :)
Based on this it looks like the run capacitor is the large one in back that has 2 yellow wires and one white wire on one side of the capacitor. White wire looks to go out directly to the compressor. And two red wires plus one open terminal on the other side of the capacitor.
So I assume I plug the single spade connector off the SPP6 on the open terminal on one side, and the piggy-back spade off the SPP6 to the white wire terminal on the other side.
Thanks
