Then gen would run, then pull a lot of amps, then speed up until the governor caught it. Hour and a half, the temp went down 3 degrees. Beloved Spouse is not impressed. Her diagnosis: It sounds funny. Can't disagree with that. So I'm following this thread to learn. Do capacitors just die without melting or going ballistic?

the #1 compressor must run before the #2 compressor will start.
you can switch the wires on the panel where your led's are so that the #1 compressor will operate with the #2 electrical components. then just leave the #2 cb off. if that works, your problem is not with the #1 compressor but is with electrical components in the #1 system.
that way 50% of your ac system will be operative until you are able to get parts.
there is a search function on this forum with trouble shooting info.
