ICP Run Capacitor 7.5 MFD 370V for RGS244HTFA0AAAA — Blower Motor | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM run capacitor (part #1183001) provides the steady phase-shifted current that keeps the blower motor in the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS244HTFA0AAAA furnace running efficiently. Rated at 7.5 MFD and 370V, it stores and releases energy to maintain proper motor torque and speed. A weak or failed capacitor causes the blower to hum, struggle to start, overheat, or stop entirely — and a motor run on a bad capacitor can fail prematurely. Capacitors are wear items that degrade with heat and age, so testing capacitance with a meter is a standard first step in diagnosing blower problems.

Specifications

Compatibility

Fits the ICP/Heil/Tempstar RGS244HTFA0AAAA furnace blower motor and other RGS-series units specifying a 7.5 MFD 370V run capacitor. Always match the MFD and voltage rating printed on your old capacitor before installing.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power at the switch and breaker, then verify zero voltage with a multimeter. Discharge the capacitor across its terminals before touching it.
2. Access — Remove the blower compartment service panel.
3. Document — Photograph the terminal wiring before disconnecting.
4. Remove — Discharge fully, pull the leads, loosen the mounting strap, and remove the old capacitor.
5. Install — Secure the new capacitor and reconnect the leads to matching terminals.
6. Test — Restore power and confirm the blower starts cleanly and runs at full speed.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Blower hums but won't start spinning
• Motor runs hot, slow, or trips on overload
• Bulged, leaking, or swollen capacitor top
• Measured capacitance well below 7.5 MFD
