OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor P291-5003 for Model 09DK024500

This OEM single run capacitor (part number P291-5003) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier 09DK024500 system. A run capacitor provides the continuous phase-shifted current needed to keep a single motor — either the compressor or the condenser fan — running efficiently after startup. When this capacitor weakens or fails, you'll typically notice the motor humming but not spinning, the system tripping on thermal overload, or the unit short-cycling within minutes of startup.

  • Specs: Single run capacitor | Factory-matched MFD and voltage rating | Round or oval case per OEM specification | ±3% tolerance for precise motor performance
  • OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine OEM Carrier part (P291-5003), built to exact factory tolerances. Generic alternatives often carry ±10% MFD variance, which increases motor winding stress and can shorten compressor or fan motor lifespan significantly.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before removing any terminals (use an insulated resistor or dedicated discharge tool). Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter to verify capacitance. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Orders placed before cutoff ship the same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed as a direct OEM replacement for Carrier model 09DK024500. Always cross-reference the MFD rating and voltage listed on your unit's data plate or the original capacitor before ordering to confirm an exact match. Have a question about fitment? Our HVAC parts specialists verify compatibility before you buy — reach out today and we'll get you the right part fast.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier 09DK024500?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier 09DK024500. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the capacitor on my Carrier 09DK024500?
Difficulty: Easy (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power at breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph the old capacitor wiring (Common/Herm/Fan). Step 4: Discharge old capacitor with insulated screwdriver. Step 5: Disconnect and remove old capacitor. Step 6: Mount new capacitor, reconnect wires to matching terminals. Step 7: Close panel, restore power, test. Tools: screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
My AC hums but won’t start. What part do I need?
An AC that hums but won’t start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost to start the compressor. When it fails, you hear humming but the motor can’t overcome inertia. Other symptoms: fan spinning slowly, AC cycling on/off rapidly, or a visibly swollen capacitor. Fix: replace capacitor ($15–$80 DIY, 30 min).
Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier capacitor?
OEM strongly recommended. OEM capacitors have ±6% MFD tolerance vs aftermarket ±10%. The looser tolerance causes motor winding stress, higher temps, and shorter compressor life. Price difference is only $10–$20 — OEM is the clear value choice.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
Orders placed before 3:00 PM CST ship the same business day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days anywhere in the continental United States. Express shipping available at checkout. We ship from Houston, TX to all 50 states. 30-day return policy on all parts.
