OEM Carrier Single Run Capacitor 35 MFD 370V for Model YAC3080YAC106

This OEM single run capacitor is the factory-specified replacement for the Carrier YAC3080YAC106 air conditioning system, cross-referencing original part number P291-3503. The run capacitor provides the sustained electrical energy that keeps the compressor or condenser fan motor spinning efficiently after startup. When this component weakens or fails, you'll typically notice the unit humming without starting, tripping the breaker, short-cycling, or the outdoor fan refusing to spin — all classic signs of capacitor failure that will only worsen without replacement.

  • Specs: 35 MFD (microfarad) | 370V rated | Oval case | ±5% factory tolerance | 50/60 Hz | Aluminum housing with 0.250" QC male tab terminals
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM-grade capacitors are built to exact factory tolerances, ensuring proper motor run current and protecting compressor longevity. Off-brand capacitors with wide ±10% MFD variance can over-stress windings and void equipment warranties.
  • Install difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge the capacitor fully before handling. Tools needed: insulated screwdriver, needle-nose pliers, multimeter (capacitance mode). Photograph all wiring connections before removal. Turn off power at the disconnect and breaker panel before beginning.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM manufacturer warranty. Ships same business day from our stocked warehouse.

Compatibility: Designed for Carrier model YAC3080YAC106. OEM part number P291-3503 (superseded). Always verify the MFD rating and voltage stamped on your existing capacitor's data label before ordering to confirm an exact match. Have a question about fitment? Our HVAC parts specialists verify compatibility before you buy — order with confidence and get it shipped today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Carrier YAC3080YAC106?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Carrier YAC3080YAC106. 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 YAC3080YAC106?
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.
