OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/12 HP 1100 RPM for Model PH12NA018000ABAA

This is the factory-authorized OEM replacement condenser fan motor (part number HC31GE232) for the Carrier PH12NA018000ABAA packaged heat pump unit. The condenser fan motor drives the outdoor fan blade, pulling air across the condenser coil to reject heat during cooling and absorb heat during heating. When this motor fails, symptoms include the outdoor fan not spinning, the compressor overheating on high-pressure lockout, warm air from the supply registers, or the unit shutting down entirely within minutes of startup. Prompt replacement prevents collateral compressor damage, making this one of the most cost-critical motors on the system.

• Specs: 1/12 HP | 1100 RPM | 208–230 VAC | 0.5A | Single Phase | 60 Hz | 39 Frame | 1/2" shaft diameter × 1-1/2" shaft length | Genteq model 5KCP39BGS162S
• OEM vs Generic: This Factory Authorized Part™ is engineered to Carrier's exact design specifications — correct RPM for proper airflow, optimized shaft length for blade positioning, and factory-matched mounting dimensions. Generic motors often deviate in RPM, rotation direction, or shaft length, causing airflow deficits, vibration, and premature failure of the compressor.
• Install Difficulty: 3/5 — Disconnect and lock out all power before beginning. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, slip-joint pliers, multimeter, wire nuts or disconnect plugs. Note motor rotation direction (typically CCW from shaft end on this model) and photograph all wiring connections before removal. Replace the run capacitor simultaneously to avoid repeat motor failure from a marginal cap.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM Factory Authorized Parts warranty. In stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.
