the original could have been a white block relay/overload...




Correct...the newer/replacement ones are seperate.
Still check for 110 volts at the 2 wires, still shake the old to see if it rattles.

gotchya...this is my relay (which looks different from the newer versions):







and shaking it...i do hear a slight rattle...

I also check the cap at different RX settings...at 10K i did get movement...somtimes...

The seperate ones are the kit an appliance tech would likely use...there still is a block verion more like the original style available...



Start-relay combination

Like a lightbulb...

Figures...none of my local suppliers carries this in stock. So ordered from this place... shipping is 2-7 days...lets hope its on the lower end.

thanks for keeping me from buying the wrong part!
