OEM Carrier Draft Inducer Motor Capacitor for Model LC350TM400563
This OEM run capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the draft inducer motor on the Carrier LC350TM400563 furnace. The inducer motor capacitor provides the starting and running torque required to spin the draft inducer blower that vents combustion gases safely out of the heat exchanger. When this capacitor fails, the inducer motor will hum without turning, run sluggishly, or fail to reach proper speed — triggering the pressure switch and locking out ignition before any heat is produced.

Specs: OEM part number HC30CL461 | Factory-matched MFD and voltage rating | Designed specifically for Carrier draft inducer motor assemblies | ±3% tolerance for precision motor protection
-
OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine OEM Carrier capacitor, not an aftermarket substitute. Generic capacitors often carry wider MFD tolerances (±10%), which can cause inducer motor overheating, premature bearing wear, and repeated pressure switch faults — OEM ensures the factory-engineered fit and lifespan.
-
Install difficulty: 2/5 — Discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter with capacitance setting. Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting. The inducer motor capacitor is typically housed in or near the inducer motor housing in the upper section of the furnace cabinet.
