Bad Well Pump Capacitor Symptoms: 6 Common Indications

Not all the symptoms of a faulty capacitor are apparent. You might want to inspect your well pump capacitor with a voltmeter at times because a bad capacitor leads to the voltmeter showing no voltage. To assess this, all you need to do is take a voltmeter to the capacitor. If the voltmeter doesn''t show any voltage, the capacitor is gone!
