The dual run capacitor continuously supplies the phase-shifted current required to keep the compressor and condenser fan motor running. The start capacitor delivers a high-torque boost at startup to get the compressor spinning under load. When either capacitor degrades, you'll experience symptoms ranging from a humming compressor that won't start, frequent short-cycling, tripped breakers, or a complete no-cooling condition — often on the hottest day of the year.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDual Run Capacitor Specs (P291-4573RS):\u003c\/strong\u003e 45 + 7.5 MFD (microfarad) | 370 VAC | Round case | Factory ±3% tolerance | Replaces HC98JA047, GE 97F9969\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eStart Capacitor Specs (P281-8806):\u003c\/strong\u003e 88–108 MFD | 330 VAC | Round case with bleed resistor | Genuine Carrier Totaline OEM\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM capacitors are reliability-tested to 60,000 service hours per Carrier application parameters and use high-grade metallized polypropylene film.
