OEM Carrier Draft Inducer Motor Capacitor HC30GB230 for Model LC348TM401736

This is the OEM factory-specified run capacitor paired with the HC30GB230 Draft Inducer Motor on the Carrier LC348TM401736 furnace. The draft inducer motor capacitor provides the electrical boost needed to start and sustain the inducer blower, which evacuates combustion gases before and during the heating cycle. When this capacitor fails, the inducer motor will hum without spinning, run sluggishly, or fail to prove combustion airflow — triggering a pressure switch lockout and a no-heat condition before ignition is ever attempted.

• Specs: Factory-matched MFD rating and 370V/440V rating per HC30GB230 inducer motor spec | Round or oval case | ±5% OEM tolerance | Direct drop-in replacement for Carrier LC348TM401736
• OEM vs Generic: This OEM capacitor is wound to the exact microfarad tolerance required by the HC30GB230 inducer motor. Off-brand alternatives often exceed ±10% tolerance, causing the motor to overheat, draw excess current, and fail prematurely — compounding an already expensive repair.
• Install difficulty: 2/5 — Discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (for verification). Always photograph terminal wiring before disconnecting. Capacitor is typically located in the inducer motor housing or adjacent blower compartment.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Orders placed before cutoff ship same business day from our climate-controlled parts warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Carrier LC348TM401736 furnace using the HC30GB230 draft inducer motor assembly. Always verify the MFD and voltage rating on your existing capacitor's label or the inducer motor data plate before ordering to ensure an exact match. Not sure if this is right for your unit?
