Is $800 to replace a dual capacitor for a trane hvac unit a fair price?

Project Details

The homeowner has a Trane HVAC unit. A technician measured the dual capacitor (30/5) at 28.6 and 4.6, which is outside the +/- 6% tolerance. The homeowner is considering a DIY replacement because they feel the quote is high and they are fairly handy.
