OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor 7.5 MFD 370V for Model PG8UAA036045AAJA

This is the OEM-spec single run capacitor for the Carrier PG8UAA036045AAJA gas furnace and associated blower/fan motor circuit. The run capacitor stores and releases an electrical charge that keeps the blower motor running at proper speed and efficiency. When this capacitor fails, you'll typically notice symptoms such as the blower motor humming without starting, intermittent blower operation, or the furnace cycling off prematurely due to overheating caused by reduced airflow. Replacing this part promptly prevents secondary motor damage and restores normal heating performance.

• Specs: 7.5 MFD (microfarad) | 370V rated (440V-compatible replacements acceptable as an upgrade) | Oval case | Cross-references: HC91CA007, GE 27L566 | Supersedes to P291-0754
• OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors are manufactured to Carrier's exact tolerance specifications (±5% MFD). Generic alternatives often carry ±10% tolerances, which can accelerate motor winding wear and reduce equipment lifespan over time.
• Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance mode). Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting the old capacitor.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty. In-stock units ship same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for use in the Carrier PG8UAA036045AAJA furnace platform. Always verify the MFD and voltage rating on your unit's data plate or existing capacitor before ordering to ensure a correct match. Have a question about fitment?
