If you have a dual capacitor, which has 3 posts, C - goes to Run on the compressor. Herm goes to start on the compressor. If you have a single capacitor Run from the compressor goes to the terminal on the capacitor that has a wire coming from one side of the contactor. The start wire goes to the other terminal on the capacitor without another wire attached to it.

The word herm means hermetically sealed compressor. That wire goes to the start terminal on the compressor.

look for a sticky tag on the back of the unit look for something with this (example only )Maytag: Model: NMPEB08F2A: MPN: CR with numbers

Make sure the drain line is not stopped up and that the drain pan is empty. The pan relay on the heat from code see to evaporate water and with a full pan that isn't going to happen. Drain line or pan full.

Remove the black drain tube and clean the ac where tube connects and blow air through black drain tube make sure there is no blockage in tube.

Not easy to explain. The capacitor is split, it has two values, or like two capacitors connected internally with a center tap between them. Two capacitance values, maybe 5uf and 20uf, the lower value for the fan motor and the higher for the compressor, with terminals C-common, F-fan, M-compressor.
Capacitor terminal C is the center tap and that takes 3 connections, line (power) - fan line common to capacitor, and Compressor line common to capacitor. Notice the fan and compressor have a power line not common to capacitor, just power line.
Capacitor terminal F has one wire connecting to Fan terminal C, fan may have three or four terminal writes, two for power with one power being common to capacitor connection and the other power alone, two power connection wire leads. Fan motor third line is capacitor, connects to the capacitor alone. Four wire configuration fan motor is not likely your needs. Omit or ask again for further explanation.
Compressor is similar to fan, only with a capacitance value higher than for tha fan motor. Two power leads, one straight power, the other power lead connects to the capacitor power. The third compressor lead connects alone to the capacitor.
The with is to draw a diagram and level the colors of each lead and terminal lavels too. The motors nameplate may indicate wire color code, the a-c nameplate wiring diagram may be present in the control wron wiring compartment, the goal is to find clues or to trace each wire and verify what they connect or do, take notes on your drawing.
Basically the motor has three terminals, L1 - L2 - C, or C- S-R (Common, Start,Run)
