The Goodman A1781105 1-Piece Vinyl Caps are factory-original protective caps used on the VMES961005CNAA gas furnace. These flexible vinyl caps seal off unused ports, terminals, or tubing stubs, keeping out dust, moisture, and debris and preventing accidental contact. A small but essential part for a clean, code-correct installation.

Specifications

Type: One-piece molded vinyl protective cap
Flexible, snug press-on fit
Seals unused ports, fittings, or terminals
Weather- and abrasion-resistant vinyl
Direct OEM replacement for the factory cap
Fits: Goodman VMES961005CNAA and compatible furnaces

OEM vs. Generic

While inexpensive, the genuine Goodman OEM cap is sized to the exact port or terminal diameter it protects, so it stays put and seals fully. Generic caps that are too loose fall off or admit moisture; too tight and they're a struggle to seat. Matching the OEM part ensures a proper fit the first time.

Installation Difficulty

Very Easy (1 of 5). No tools required — simply press the vinyl cap onto the port or terminal it protects. A less-than-5-minute task. As always, service the furnace with power disconnected at the breaker.
