What MFD capacitor do I need for my ICP AC?

The correct replacement for ICP model WFAR120D060A1 — With Oval Strap | Ships Today is this exact part. It is the factory-specified replacement with exact OEM specifications. Using a part with different specifications can cause equipment damage or void your warranty. You can verify this by checking the data plate on your ICP equipment which lists the model number WFAR120D060A1 — With Oval Strap | Ships Today.

My AC hums but will not start. What part do I need?

An AC that hums but will not start is the classic symptom of a failed capacitor. The capacitor provides the electrical boost needed to start the compressor and fan motors. When it fails, you hear the hum of the motor trying to start but it cannot overcome inertia. Other symptoms include the fan spinning slowly, the AC cycling on and off rapidly, or a visibly swollen or leaking capacitor. Replacement cost: $15 to $80 for the part, DIY in 30 minutes.

Overview

This OEM run capacitor kit for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil WFAR120D060A1 includes a 35 MFD, 370V oval run capacitor (part number 1184895) and its mounting strap (part number 1014315). The capacitor stores and delivers the phase-shifted current the blower motor needs to start smoothly and run efficiently. As capacitors age, their microfarad capacity drifts down, causing hard starts, motor humming, overheating, and eventually a motor that won't turn at all. Replacing a weak capacitor is one of the cheapest, highest-impact furnace repairs.

Compatibility

Built for the ICP WFAR120D060A1 and compatible Tempstar/Heil/Comfortmaker units calling for a 35 MFD 370V oval run capacitor. Confirm your motor's required microfarad and voltage rating on the motor data plate before installing. A 370V capacitor may replace a 370V or 440V-rated position only when the MFD matches; never reduce voltage rating below the original.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the furnace switch and breaker, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter and discharge the old capacitor across its terminals with an insulated resistor.
Access — Remove the blower compartment service panel.
Document — Photograph all terminal connections before disconnecting.
Remove — Disconnect the leads, loosen the oval strap, and remove the old capacitor.
Install — Seat the new capacitor in the strap, fasten it, and reconnect the leads per your photo.
Test — Restore power and confirm the blower starts instantly and runs quietly.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the ICP WFAR120D060A1 — With Oval Strap | Ships Today. 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 ICP WFAR120D060A1 — With Oval Strap | Ships Today?

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 ICP 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 ICP 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.
