What MFD capacitor do I need for my ICP AC?

The correct replacement for ICP model WAMA30004A1 — 35/5 MFD 440V Dual Run | 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 WAMA30004A1 — 35/5 MFD 440V Dual Run | 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 dual run capacitor (Part No. 202401000058), supplied with its mounting strap (Part No. 201270390202), provides the phase-shifted starting and running torque for both the compressor and condenser fan motor in your ICP / Tempstar / Heil WAMA30004A1. Rated at 35/5 MFD and 440V, it stores and releases energy on every cycle to keep both motors turning efficiently. Capacitors are one of the most common HVAC failure points — heat, voltage spikes, and age cause the dielectric to break down. A weak or failed run capacitor shows up as a compressor or fan that hums but won't start, a condenser fan that spins slowly or stalls, hard starting, tripped breakers, or a unit that short-cycles on a hot day.

Compatibility

Direct OEM-fit replacement for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil WAMA30004A1. The included mounting strap secures the capacitor in the control box. Verify the MFD rating and part number stamped on your existing capacitor before installing.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power and verify zero voltage with a multimeter. Capacitors store a charge — discharge it across a resistor before handling.
Access — Remove the service panel to reach the control compartment.
Document — Photograph the HERM, FAN, and C terminal wiring before disconnecting.
Remove — Pull the spade connectors, loosen the old mounting strap, and lift out the failed capacitor.
Install — Set the new capacitor in the strap, tighten it down, and reconnect each terminal exactly per your photo.
Test — Restore power and verify the compressor and fan start cleanly with no hum or delay.

Signs You Need a Replacement

Compressor or fan hums but does not start.
Condenser fan spins slowly, stalls, or needs a push.
Bulged, leaking, or domed capacitor top.
Hard starting, tripped breakers, or short-cycling.

How do I replace the capacitor on my ICP WAMA30004A1 — 35/5 MFD 440V Dual Run | 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?
