The old one has red, purple, brown (right to left) whereas the new one has green, brown, red (right to left).
I would be tempted to connect red-red, brown-brown and green-purple but any thoughts would be welcomed.
At the other end of both capacitors are two gray wires. Does it matter which is which?
I have attached photos of both capacitors
