ICP Run Capacitor for RGS213LSCA0AAAA — 7.5 MFD 370V Oval | Ships Today

Overview

This OEM run capacitor is the exact 7.5 MFD, 370-volt oval unit used in the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS213LSCA0AAAA gas furnace and matched condensing systems. A run capacitor provides the continuous phase shift a single-phase motor needs to keep the condenser fan or blower running efficiently. As the capacitor ages, its capacitance drifts out of tolerance, the dielectric breaks down, and the motor draws excess current. Common failure symptoms include a fan motor that hums but will not start, a motor that starts slowly or runs hot, intermittent shutdowns on thermal overload, and a visibly bulged or leaking capacitor can. This kit includes the OEM capacitor (part 1176150), the mounting plate (1183001), and the oval retaining clamp (1171552) so you have everything needed for a clean, secure installation.

Specifications

Compatibility

Designed as a direct OEM replacement for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil RGS213LSCA0AAAA and the family of furnaces and condensing units that share this 7.5 MFD 370V run capacitor. Always confirm the MFD and voltage rating printed on your existing capacitor before ordering — capacitance must match exactly, and voltage rating must be equal to or greater than the original.

Installation Guide

1. Safety First — Disconnect power at the breaker and verify zero voltage with a multimeter. Discharge the old capacitor across its terminals with an insulated screwdriver before touching it.
2. Access — Remove the service panel to expose the capacitor and its mounting bracket.
3. Document — Photograph all wire connections and terminal markings before disconnecting anything.
4. Remove — Loosen the oval clamp, pull the spade terminals off the old capacitor, and lift it out of the plate.
5. Install — Seat the new capacitor on the mounting plate, secure the oval clamp, and reconnect the leads exactly as photographed.
6. Test — Restore power and confirm the motor starts immediately and runs smoothly without humming or overheating.

Signs You Need a Replacement

• Condenser or blower fan hums but does not spin until pushed by hand.
• Capacitor reads out of tolerance or open on a meter.
• Bulged, swollen, or leaking capacitor can.
• System trips on thermal overload or shuts down intermittently.
