ICP Round Run Capacitor for WPG3424090LKC1 — 2.0 MFD | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM 2.0 MFD round run capacitor provides the steady phase shift a single-phase motor needs to run efficiently on the ICP WPG3424090LKC1 system. Run capacitors store and release energy to keep the motor's start winding energized, maintaining torque and reducing amp draw. A weak or failed 2.0 MFD capacitor causes the associated motor to hum without starting, run hot, draw high amperage, or cycle on its thermal overload. Capacitors are a common, inexpensive failure point — a bulging top, leaking oil, or an out-of-tolerance microfarad reading all signal replacement. Includes the round mounting clamp (OEM 1095021).

Specifications

Compatibility

Direct-fit OEM replacement for the ICP / Heil / Tempstar / Comfortmaker WPG3424090LKC1 unit. Fits ICP-family equipment calling for a 2.0 MFD round run capacitor. Confirm the microfarad and voltage rating stamped on your existing capacitor before ordering.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power and verify zero voltage, then discharge the capacitor across its terminals with an insulated resistor before touching it.
2. Access — Remove the service panel to reach the capacitor and its clamp.
3. Document — Photograph the terminal wiring before disconnecting.
4. Remove — Pull the spade connectors, loosen the mounting clamp, and remove the old capacitor.
5. Install — Secure the new capacitor in the clamp and reconnect the leads to the matching terminals per your photo.
6. Test — Restore power and confirm the motor starts smoothly and runs at normal amperage.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Motor hums but will not start or is slow to start
• Bulging, swollen, or leaking capacitor case
• Microfarad reading outside ±6% of 2.0 MFD on a meter
• Motor runs hot or trips on thermal overload
