OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 10/10 MFD 370V for Model PY1RPA120180ABWA

This is the factory-specified OEM dual run capacitor for the Carrier PY1RPA120180ABWA packaged unit. The capacitor stores and releases the electrical charge required to start and sustain both the compressor and condenser fan motor during every cooling cycle. When this capacitor weakens or fails, symptoms typically include a loud hum with no compressor or fan startup, the system short-cycling within the first few minutes of operation, or a complete failure to respond to thermostat calls. Replacing it promptly prevents expensive compressor damage caused by hard-start stress.

  • Specs: 10+10 MFD (microfarad) | 370 VAC rated | Oval case form factor | 50/60 Hz | Factory-matched ±5% tolerance | OEM Part Numbers: P291-1013 / P291-1014 (successor) | Cross-references: HC93CA013, GE/Genteq 27L180
  • OEM vs Generic: This OEM capacitor is manufactured to Carrier's exact tolerance specifications. Generic aftermarket capacitors often carry a wider ±10% MFD variance, which accelerates motor winding wear, increases compressor stress, and can void equipment warranties. For a long-term fix, always match OEM specs.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Discharge the capacitor fully before touching any terminals (use a 20,000-ohm resistor or insulated discharge tool). Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter with capacitance mode. Always photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting the old capacitor. Verify MFD and voltage ratings on the unit's data plate prior to installation.
  • Warranty & Shipping: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In stock and ships same business day from our warehouse. Includes related OEM part number HC30GB230 (Draft Inducer Motor w/ Capacitor kit) and P291-0403 (Single Run Capacitor) for comprehensive capacitor service on this model.

Compatibility: Engineered for the Carrier PY1RPA120180ABWA packaged unit. OEM part numbers covered: HC30GB230, P291-1013, and P291-0403. Always confirm the MFD and voltage rating on your unit's data plate before ordering. Not sure? Our HVAC parts specialists verify fitment before you buy — order now and get same-day shipping.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 10/10 MFD 370V — PY1RPA120180ABWA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 10/10 MFD 370V — PY1RPA120180ABWA. It is a direct drop-in replacement that fits without modification. Always verify the model number on your equipment nameplate before ordering.
How do I replace the capacitor on my Carrier OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 10/10 MFD 370V — PY1RPA120180ABWA?
Difficulty: Easy (20–30 min)
Step 1: Turn off power at breaker. Step 2: Open condensing unit panel. Step 3: Photograph the old capacitor wiring (Common/Herm/Fan). Step 4: Discharge old capacitor with insulated screwdriver. Step 5: Disconnect and remove old capacitor. Step 6: Mount new capacitor, reconnect wires to matching terminals. Step 7: Close panel, restore power, test. Tools: screwdriver, needle-nose pliers.
My AC hums but won’t start. What part do I need?
An AC that hums but won’t start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost to start the compressor. When it fails, you hear humming but the motor can’t overcome inertia. Other symptoms: fan spinning slowly, AC cycling on/off rapidly, or a visibly swollen capacitor. Fix: replace capacitor ($15–$80 DIY, 30 min).
Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne too?
Many Carrier parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across brand labels with different model numbers. To verify: check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or email info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number.
Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Carrier capacitor?
OEM strongly recommended. OEM capacitors have ±6% MFD tolerance vs aftermarket ±10%. The looser tolerance causes motor winding stress, higher temps, and shorter compressor life. Price difference is only $10–$20 — OEM is the clear value choice.
How fast does National HVAC Parts ship?
