Digging Deeper...
I removed the front panel to allow a closer look at the components...
Here's a look at the whole unit from the front, showing the fan and the compressor. I see that the fan shows a little discoloration, but really, very little.
Here is the compressor compartment with all the compressor-related components...
This is a closeup of the compressor identification label.
The crankcase heating assembly.
This is the reversing valve.
The transformer for the control board power supply (or maybe it's for the fan?)
The starting cap for the compressor that provides a slightly off-phase kick to get the compressor motor going.
And lastly, reaching the camera through a small space behind the compressor and pressing the shutter with the bloody knuckle of my thumb, is the cap tube.
Best,
