OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor Kit 4 MFD + 15 MFD 370V for Model PY2PPB048130AB

This factory-matched OEM single run capacitor kit includes both the P291-0403 (4 MFD 370V) and P291-1503 (15 MFD 370V) oval run capacitors — the exact pair specified for the Carrier PY2PPB048130AB packaged unit. These capacitors maintain the steady electrical charge that keeps the compressor motor and condenser fan motor running efficiently after start-up. When either capacitor degrades or fails, you'll typically notice the system humming without fully starting, motors running hot, the unit short-cycling, or a complete no-cool condition. Replacing both at the same time is industry best practice — if one has failed, the other is likely near end of life.

  • Specs: P291-0403 — 4 MFD (microfarad) | 370V | Oval case | Single run | P291-1503 — 15 MFD | 370V | Oval case | Single run | ±5% factory tolerance | 60 Hz rated
  • OEM vs Generic: These are genuine Carrier Totaline-series capacitors engineered to meet factory reliability standards. OEM units are tested to 60,000+ service hours and subject to 100% electrical testing. Generic capacitors often carry wider MFD tolerances that accelerate motor wear and reduce system efficiency.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge capacitors before handling — they retain lethal voltage after power is cut. Tools needed: insulated screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance mode). Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting. Each capacitor connects to its respective motor terminal; do not swap them.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty on both capacitors. Orders ship same business day from our warehouse when placed before cutoff.

Compatibility: This kit is specifically matched to the Carrier PY2PPB048130AB packaged unit. Always verify the MFD and voltage ratings against your unit's data plate before installing. Cross-reference part numbers P291-0403 and P291-1503 (or their current successors P291-0404 and P291-1504) to confirm correct fit. Have questions about fitment? Our HVAC parts specialists verify compatibility before you order — reach out before checkout.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor Kit 4 MFD + 15 MFD 370V — PY2PPB04813?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor Kit 4 MFD + 15 MFD 370V — PY2PPB04813. 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 Single Run Capacitor Kit 4 MFD + 15 MFD 370V — PY2PPB04813?
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?
Orders placed before 3:00 PM CST ship the same business day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days anywhere in the continental United States. Express shipping available at checkout. We ship from Houston, TX to all 50 states. 30-day return policy on all parts.
