OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor P291-1503 for Model PG8HAA048075AAJA

This OEM single run capacitor (part number P291-1503) is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PG8HAA048075AAJA gas furnace. The run capacitor maintains a continuous phase-shifted current to keep the blower (indoor air handler) motor spinning at full efficiency throughout each heating cycle. When this capacitor begins to fail, you'll notice symptoms such as a blower motor that hums but won't spin, sluggish startup, the unit short-cycling, or a furnace that locks out on a high-limit fault because airflow is insufficient. Replacing it promptly protects the blower motor from overheating and premature burnout — a repair that costs significantly more.

  • Specs: Single run capacitor | Factory-matched MFD rating and voltage | Round or oval case per OEM spec | Tight ±5% tolerance for reliable motor performance
  • OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM part. Generic capacitors frequently ship with ±10–15% MFD tolerance, causing motor strain, reduced efficiency, and shortened component life. OEM ensures an exact factory match every time.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — A straightforward swap for any experienced DIYer or HVAC technician. Always disconnect power at the breaker and discharge the capacitor before touching terminals. Tools needed: flathead and Phillips screwdriver, 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
  • Warranty & Shipping: Backed by a 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Orders placed before cutoff ship same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Carrier PG8HAA048075AAJA packaged gas furnace. Always verify the MFD and voltage rating printed on your existing capacitor against the data plate inside your unit before ordering. Not sure it fits? Our HVAC parts specialists confirm fitment before you buy — order with confidence and get your system back up and running today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PG8HAA048075AAJA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PG8HAA048075AAJA. 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 PG8HAA048075AAJA?
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.
