What MFD capacitor do I need for my Carrier AC?

The correct replacement for Carrier model PG9MAA060080AEKA 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 PG9MAA060080AEKA.

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 3 MFD 250V for Model PG9MAA060080AEKA

This is the genuine OEM Carrier single run capacitor (part number HC91PD001), factory-specified for the Carrier PG9MAA060080AEKA gas furnace. The run capacitor provides the sustained electrical charge required to keep the draft inducer blower motor spinning reliably throughout every heating cycle. When this capacitor degrades or fails, you may notice the inducer motor struggling to start, running noisily, overheating, or failing to run at all — often triggering a pressure switch lockout before ignition even begins.

Specs: 3 MFD (microfarad) | 250V AC rated | Rectangular case (ShiZuki CMKS-X345) | ±5% tolerance | 50/60 Hz
OEM vs Generic: This is a genuine Carrier OEM part — not an aftermarket substitute. OEM capacitors are manufactured to exact factory tolerances, ensuring proper motor current draw and protecting your inducer motor from premature wear. Generic ±10% tolerance units can shorten motor life significantly.
Install difficulty: 2/5 — Discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: flathead screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance mode). Always photograph existing wiring before disconnecting. The rectangular form factor seats directly into the original bracket with no modification required.
Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against manufacturing defects. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PG9MAA060080AEKA gas furnace and its draft inducer motor circuit. Also used across a wide range of Carrier, Bryant, and Payne gas furnace platforms sharing the same inducer motor assembly. Always verify the MFD rating and voltage on your existing capacitor or equipment data plate before ordering. Have questions about fitment? Our HVAC parts specialists are ready to confirm compatibility before you buy.

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PG9MAA060080AEKA?

Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PG9MAA060080AEKA. 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 PG9MAA060080AEKA?

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.
