OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/4 HP 208-230V 1100 RPM for Model PH10JA03600GAHAA
This is the genuine OEM condenser fan motor for the Carrier PH10JA03600GAHAA heat pump / condensing unit, sold under primary OEM part number HC39GE237 (also cross-referenced as HC40GE232). The condenser fan motor drives the outdoor fan blade to pull air across the condenser coil, rejecting heat from the refrigerant circuit to the outside environment. When this motor fails, the system will overheat and trip the high-pressure limit, short-cycle, or shut down entirely on thermal overload — often within minutes of startup. You may also notice the outdoor fan is not spinning while the compressor is running, or hear a hum with no rotation.

OEM vs Generic: This factory-authorized OEM motor is wound and balanced to Carrier's exact tolerances, ensuring proper airflow CFM, correct amp draw, and full refrigerant system efficiency. Generic aftermarket motors often carry ±10% tolerance on RPM and amp ratings, which can reduce system capacity, increase compressor head pressure, and shorten overall system life.
-
Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Shut off power at the disconnect and verify zero voltage before opening the unit. Tools needed: 5/16" and 1/4" nut drivers, fan blade puller (strongly recommended to avoid bending the blade), needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter. Photograph all wire connections before disconnecting. Note rotation direction and shaft orientation on the original motor before removal. A capacitor should be tested or replaced at the same time.
-
Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects in materials and workmanship. Orders placed by 3 PM local time ship same business day from our warehouse.
Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PH10JA03600GAHAA condensing / heat pump unit. Part number HC39GE237 also replaces HC39GE237A, HC39GE236A, HC39GE234A, HC39GE232A, HC37GE232, HC39GE231, and 5KCP39FGS071S.
