OEM Carrier Run Capacitor P291-4554 for FIOP200C501GA

This OEM Carrier run capacitor supplies the continuous phase-shifted current that keeps the compressor and condenser fan motor turning smoothly in your FIOP200C501GA unit. When a capacitor weakens, bulges, or leaks, you'll see a fan that won't spin, a humming compressor, elevated amp draw, and accelerated motor wear. Rated to Carrier's exact microfarad and voltage specification, this dual run capacitor mirrors the FIOP200C501GA factory component for a precise fit and full-rated motor output. Replacing it is a popular DIY repair, but the capacitor holds a dangerous stored charge: disconnect power, discharge both terminals with an insulated resistor, photograph the HERM, FAN, and C connections, then transfer the leads to the new unit. Most installs take just 15 to 20 minutes. A genuine OEM capacitor delivers the correct rating that generics often miss, protecting the compressor and extending its life. In stock and ships same-day when you order before 3PM CST, so cooling is restored without delay. Always confirm the MFD rating printed on your old capacitor before installation.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Run Capacitor fit my Carrier FIOP200C501GA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM run capacitor for the Carrier FIOP200C501GA. 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 run capacitor on my Carrier FIOP200C501GA?
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 run 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 run 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.
