OEM Carrier Dual Run Capacitor 70+5 MFD 370V for Model PY3GNA060130AA

This OEM dual run capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier PY3GNA060130AA packaged unit. The dual run capacitor stores and delivers the electrical charge needed to start and continuously run both the compressor and the condenser fan motor from a single component. When this capacitor fails, you'll typically notice the system humming without the compressor or fan motor engaging, the unit short-cycling, or warm air blowing despite the system appearing to be running. In some cases, the compressor will attempt to start, overheat, and trip on thermal overload. Replacing a failed capacitor promptly prevents costly compressor damage.

  • Specs: 70+5 MFD (microfarad) | 370V rated (440V compatible) | Round case | OEM part number P291-7053RS (superseded by P291-7054R) | ±5% factory tolerance
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors are manufactured to exact factory MFD and voltage tolerances, ensuring proper motor starting torque and run efficiency. Generic or off-brand capacitors often carry a ±10% MFD tolerance, which accelerates compressor wear and can void equipment warranties.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, and a multimeter for verification. Photograph all wiring connections before disconnecting. Total job typically takes 15–30 minutes for an experienced DIYer.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty. In-stock and ships same business day from our warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for the Carrier PY3GNA060130AA packaged unit. Always verify the MFD rating and voltage on your unit's data plate before ordering to confirm fitment. Have questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier PY3GNA060130AA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier PY3GNA060130AA. 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 PY3GNA060130AA?
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.
