What MFD capacitor do I need for my ICP AC?

The correct replacement for ICP model RGS213LECA0AAAA — Oval with Plate & Clamp | 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 RGS213LECA0AAAA — Oval with Plate & Clamp | 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 fits the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS213LECA0AAAA system and includes the 7.5 MFD 370V oval run capacitor (part 1176150), the capacitor mounting plate (1183001), and the oval capacitor clamp (1171552). A run capacitor stores and releases energy to keep a motor running efficiently at the correct phase and torque. As capacitors age, the microfarad (MFD) value drifts low, causing the motor to draw high amperage, overheat, hum, or fail to start. A weak or bulging capacitor is one of the most frequent and inexpensive causes of a unit that buzzes but won't run. Replacing it with the correct 7.5 MFD, 370-volt rated part restores proper motor performance.

Compatibility

Designed for the ICP-family RGS213LECA0AAAA and equivalent Tempstar, Heil, and Comfortmaker chassis. Verify the printed MFD (7.5) and voltage (370V) on your existing capacitor before ordering.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power and verify zero voltage, then discharge the capacitor across its terminals with an insulated resistor.
Access — Remove the electrical service panel.
Document — Photograph the terminal wiring before disconnecting any leads.
Remove — Pull the spade connectors, loosen the clamp, and lift out the old capacitor and plate.
Install — Mount the new plate and clamp, set the capacitor, and reconnect wires per your photo.
Test — Restore power and confirm the motor starts smoothly and runs at rated amperage.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Motor hums or buzzes but won't spin up
Bulged, leaking, or swollen capacitor top
High amp draw or repeated overload tripping
Intermittent starting or weak motor performance

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my ICP RGS213LECA0AAAA — Oval with Plate & Clamp | Ships Today?

Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the ICP RGS213LECA0AAAA — Oval with Plate & Clamp | 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 RGS213LECA0AAAA — Oval with Plate & Clamp | 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.
