OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor P291-1003 for Model GB3AAV048095AEJA
This is the factory-specified OEM single run capacitor (part number P291-1003) for the Carrier GB3AAV048095AEJA gas furnace. The run capacitor maintains a steady phase-shifted current to keep the blower motor running efficiently after startup. When this capacitor degrades or fails, the blower motor may hum and fail to start, run sluggishly, overheat, or cause the system to short-cycle — resulting in inadequate heating or cooling airflow throughout your home.
