Harry Womack,

I have the 9203C876 Model A/C. Built 2006.

I checked my Start Capacitor today. It states 88-108 Mfd/165V. Looks like I too have the older 165V Start Capacitor. As you stated, the 165V Start Capacitor was part of the Hard Start Kit 8335-9021 for the older 92X2 "C" Series Polar Mach A/C units. The 92X2 model is older and was previously installed on Trailmanors (My RV Data Card by Trailmanor says I have the 9202-876 model installed. The Data plate located on the A/C unit and RVP paperwork says I have the 9203C876 model installed. Trailmanor made a typo). The newer 92X3 "C" Series Polar Mach A/C units had the 250V Start Capacitor that's part of Hard Start Kit 9335-9021. The compressor for the 92X3 is labeled HGAB514EXA and is made by Tecumseh in Brazil (1450A2189): http://www.tecumseh.com/en/united-st...A?fromsearch=1

The current Repair Parts List for the 92X2 Series Polar Mach (http://www.rvcomfort.com/pdf_documents/r485_copy.pdf) is dated 2003.
The current Repair Parts List for the 92X3 Series Polar Mach (http://www.rvcomfort.com/pdf_documents/r486_copy8.pdf) is dated 2008.

My TM2619 is a 2007 model but was built in July 2006. The manufacture date on the 165V Start Capacitor is Oct 2006. How did a Start capacitor made in Oct. 2006 get installed in my TM that was built in July 2006? Only thing I can think of is that the original Start Capacitor installed by RVP broke sometime after Oct 2006 and was replaced with the older 165V part by mistake. 2006-2007 seems to have been a transition year for Trailmanor installing the 92X2 and 92X3 A/C units.

My Compressor Run Capacitor states 40 Mfd/370V and my Fan Capacitor states 7.5 Mfd/370V. So those two are correct. Ordered the 250V Start Capacitor today. Will install next week.

This is definitely something for owners to check on their TM's - especially if you bought it used and/or plan on powering it with a generator.
