OEM Carrier Condenser Fan Motor 1/4 HP 208-230V 1100 RPM for Model PY1RJA048115AAWA

This is the factory OEM condenser fan motor (part number HC39GR234) for the Carrier PY1RJA048115AAWA split-system condenser. The condenser fan motor draws heat-laden air across the outdoor coil and exhausts it away from the unit. When this motor fails, the outdoor fan stops spinning — causing the compressor to overheat, triggering high-pressure lockout, or causing the system to short-cycle entirely. Common failure symptoms include the outdoor fan humming without turning, running hot to the touch, shutting off intermittently, or not starting at all even when the compressor is running.

• Specs: 1/4 HP | 208-230V | Single Phase | 1100 RPM | 1.5 Amps | 60 Hz | CWLE rotation | Frame 48 | 0.5" shaft diameter | 1.5" shaft length | Vertical mount only
• OEM vs Generic: This is the genuine Carrier/GE-Genteq factory motor — not a universal substitute. OEM motors match exact torque curves, rotation direction, and mounting dimensions to prevent vibration-induced premature failure that is common with undersized generic replacements.
• Install difficulty: 3/5 — Disconnect power and discharge the run capacitor before removing the motor. Tools needed: 1/4" and 5/16" nut drivers, wire stripper, multimeter, and thread-locking compound for set screw. Always photograph wiring orientation before disconnecting. Note: It is strongly recommended to replace the run capacitor at the same time — a weak or out-of-tolerance capacitor can overheat and prematurely burn out the new motor.
• Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty against defects. In-stock units ship same business day from our warehouse.
