OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor HC31GE232 — 1/12 HP 1100 RPM 208-230V for Model PH10JA01800GAFAA

This is the factory-specified OEM condenser fan motor for the Carrier PH10JA01800GAFAA heat pump. Manufactured by GE (Genteq) to Carrier's exact specifications under part number HC31GE232 (GE model 5KCP39BGS162S), this motor drives the condenser fan blade to expel heat from the outdoor coil during both cooling and heating operation. When this motor fails, symptoms include the outdoor unit running but not cooling or heating effectively, the system short-cycling on high-pressure lockout, or a completely non-spinning condenser fan with the compressor humming. Left unaddressed, a failed condenser fan motor leads to compressor damage — the most expensive repair on any heat pump system.

• Specs: 1/12 HP | 1100 RPM | 208-230 VAC | 0.5 Amps | 1-Phase | 60 Hz | Frame 48Y | 5/8" shaft diameter | 1.5" shaft length | Counter-clockwise rotation (shaft up)
• OEM vs Generic: This OEM unit is manufactured to Carrier's exact tolerances for frame size, RPM, and amp draw. Generic aftermarket motors often deviate in rotation direction, shaft length, or amp draw, causing premature failure or voided equipment warranties. OEM is the only choice when preserving your system's efficiency and Energy Star rating.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Requires disconnecting 240V power at the disconnect box and discharging any run capacitor before touching terminals. Tools needed: 5/16" and 1/4" nut drivers, needle-nose pliers, multimeter, wire stripper. Always photograph existing wiring and rotation direction before removal. Pro tip: replace the run capacitor at the same time — a worn capacitor is a leading cause of motor failure and will shorten the life of your new motor.
• Warranty & Shipping: 1-year OEM factory warranty. Ships same business day from our warehouse. Replaces superseded part numbers HC31GE232A, HC31GE231, HC32GE230, HC31GE230, and HC31GE230A.
