OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor 10 MFD 370V for Model PG8UAA048135ACJA

This OEM single run capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PG8UAA048135ACJA gas furnace blower motor circuit. The run capacitor provides the continuous phase-shifted current that keeps the blower motor spinning efficiently at full speed. When it degrades or fails, you'll notice symptoms such as a sluggish or slow-starting blower, the motor humming but not spinning, the furnace overheating due to reduced airflow, or the motor running hot and tripping thermal protection. Replacing a failing capacitor promptly protects the blower motor from premature burnout — a far more costly repair.

  • Specs: 10 MFD (microfarad) | 370V rated | Oval case | ±6% tolerance | 50/60 Hz | Non-PCB dielectric fluid | OEM Part# P291-1003
  • OEM vs Generic: This is the factory-matched OEM capacitor built to Carrier's exact tolerance specifications. Generic capacitors often operate at ±10% MFD or wider, increasing motor winding stress and shortening blower motor life — especially critical in a high-cycle furnace application.
  • Install difficulty: 1/5 — One of the easiest HVAC repairs. Discharge the capacitor before handling. Tools needed: flathead or Phillips screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (recommended for pre-install verification). Always photograph existing wiring before disconnecting terminals.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. Ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PG8UAA048135ACJA packaged gas furnace blower motor circuit. Verify the MFD rating and voltage on your unit's data plate or existing capacitor before ordering. Note: Carrier sources capacitors from approved third-party manufacturers (such as Totaline/Hartland Controls) — the label on the capacitor will reflect the component manufacturer's name, not Carrier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PG8UAA048135ACJA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PG8UAA048135ACJA. 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 PG8UAA048135ACJA?
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.
