Can a worn contactor on a condensor fan motor cause a high amp draw?

Yes, a worn contactor on a condenser fan motor can lead to a high amp draw. If the contactor's contacts are pitted or damaged, they may not create a proper connection, causing the motor to work harder to start and run. This increased resistance can result in higher current draw, potentially leading to overheating and further damage to the motor or electrical components. It's important to replace worn contactors to ensure efficient operation and prevent damage.
