Martyn, You can measure the condensors with a capacitance meter. Typically automotive condensors are about 0.2-0.3 uf. Assuming that one mode of failure is that they short internally, then you can just put the multi-meter on continuity check and see if the condensor is shorted. -----Original Message----- From: spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net [mailto:spridgets-bounces@autox.team.net] On Behalf Of Martyn Ridley Sent: Sunday, May 12, 2013 4:43 PM To: spridgets@autox.team.net Subject: [Spridgets] Bad batch of Condensers Just as there was a bad batch of black rotors several years ago there now seems to be a bad batch of condensers out there. How do you tell the good from the bad?
