Does the Carrier condenser fan blow up through the grille?

Yes it blows up

Thanks, I had push started it the wrong direction. Today I installed a fan cap, now it starts up and runs the right direction. I put a 5f/370v to replace the bad half of the 40f/5f/440V that it came with. Thanks for your help and the forum's help!

Yep that will work and it is much cheaper than replacing the dual capacitor.

You've got that right. $4.25 vs. $43.00. I made a bracket out of a beer can. My wife calls me McGiver.

It is aluminum and will not rust also.
