What MFD capacitor do I need for my Carrier AC?

The correct replacement for Carrier model PG8MAA060155ABJA is this exact part. It is the factory-specified replacement with exact OEM specifications. Using a part with different specifications can cause equipment damage or void your warranty. You can verify this by checking the data plate on your Carrier equipment which lists the model number PG8MAA060155ABJA.

My AC hums but will not start. What part do I need?

An AC that hums but will not start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost needed to start the compressor and fan motors. When it fails, you hear the hum of the motor trying to start but it cannot overcome inertia. Other symptoms include the fan spinning slowly, the AC cycling on and off rapidly, or a visibly swollen or leaking capacitor. Replacement cost: $15 to $80 for the part, DIY in 30 minutes.

Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne systems too?

Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne systems since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across multiple brand labels with different model numbers. To verify cross-compatibility, check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or contact info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number for confirmation.

OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor 10 MFD 370V for Model PG8MAA060155ABJA

This OEM single run capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PG8MAA060155ABJA furnace. The run capacitor maintains the continuous phase-shifted current that keeps the blower motor spinning at proper speed and efficiency. When this capacitor fails, you'll typically notice the blower motor humming without turning, starting slowly, overheating, or shutting down mid-cycle — all classic signs of a capacitor that can no longer hold its rated charge.

Specs: 10 MFD (microfarad) | 370V rated (440V compatible) | Oval case | ±5% factory tolerance | Part # P291-1003
OEM vs Generic: This is the factory-authorized OEM part sourced through Carrier's Totaline/Replacement Components Division. OEM capacitors hold tighter MFD tolerances than generic aftermarket units, reducing motor stress and extending blower motor life.
Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (to verify charge is zero). Photograph existing wiring before disconnecting. The oval shape and single-terminal configuration make this a straightforward swap.
Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PG8MAA060155ABJA packaged gas furnace. Always verify the MFD rating and voltage on your unit's data plate before ordering to confirm an exact match. Note: Carrier sources capacitors from Totaline/Hartland Controls — the label on the physical part will reflect the component manufacturer, not Carrier. Questions about fitment? Our HVAC parts team verifies compatibility before you order — reach out before checkout.

How do I replace the capacitor on my Carrier PG8MAA060155ABJA?

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.
