The blower motor on my air handler stopped working yesterday and with the high heat today I'm not looking forward to being without air conditioning. I believe the capacitor for the blower motor needs replacing: it is a GE 27L567 (15uf, 370VAC).

It looks like I could get these from Grainger (not the exact part, but compatible capacitors: item # 2MDV9 or # 5CMU8) but they are not open on Saturday. I called Metro Electric Supply and they don't carry capacitors.

Any ideas on a local source for this part that might be open on Saturday? My last resort is to try to get a HVAC repair company to come out and charge me hundreds of dollars for this $12 part.

I found a solution: a HVAC contractor let me use their account at Crescent Parts. They are open 8-noon on Saturday.
