The dual run capacitor sustains the compressor and condenser fan motor during normal operation, while the start capacitor delivers the high-torque burst of current needed to cycle the compressor on. When either fails, symptoms range from a humming compressor that won't start, to a unit that trips on thermal overload, to complete no-cooling\/no-heating lockout. Replacing both at the same time is best practice — start capacitors rarely fail alone, and dual run capacitors on the same unit are typically the same age.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Run Capacitor Specs (P291-4054RS):\u003c\/strong\u003e 40+5 MFD | 440V | Round case | ±6% tolerance | 50\/60 Hz | AFC 10,000 | Castor Oil protected | No PCB\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStart Capacitor Specs (P281-8806):\u003c\/strong\u003e 88–108 MFD | 330V | With bleed resistor | 2.06\" diameter × 4.37\" height | Factory-matched OEM Totaline\/Carrier spec\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM capacitors are built to exact Carrier factory tolerances. Generic alternatives often carry a wider ±10% MFD variance, which accelerates compressor wear, shortens motor life, and can void equipment warranties. Note: Carrier sources capacitors from sub-manufacturers (e.g., Totaline\/BMI); the label will reflect the sub-manufacturer's name — this is normal and correct.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eInstall Difficulty: 2\/5\u003c\/strong\u003e — Always discharge capacitors before handling.
