I've replaced both capacitors and fan motors on previous (not Jayco) TT. I'm pretty sure I killed the motor by trying to run the AC off an inadequate extension cord at the house. The capacitor just died by itself some years later.
Replacing the motor was a bit of a job - not because it was technically difficult, but because it was a tight space to get sockets and hands into. Capacitor is a piece of cake, once screw to hold the capacitor and two wires with push on connectors right where it's easy to get to once the cover is off.
I agree your problem sounds like a capacitor. Sometimes when they get super hot (like on a 100 degree day) they physically pop. Other times they just ware out.
Also X2 on the "don't let it try to run" - or you WILL have to replace both.
