What MFD capacitor do I need for my Goodman AC?

The correct replacement for Goodman model WGPH4560AMAA — CAP050800440RTS 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 Goodman equipment which lists the model number WGPH4560AMAA — CAP050800440RTS.

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.

Is this capacitor compatible with Bryant or Payne systems too?

Many Goodman parts are cross-compatible with Bryant and Payne systems since all three brands are manufactured by Carrier Global Corporation. The same physical part is often used across multiple brand labels with different model numbers. To verify cross-compatibility, check your Bryant or Payne equipment service manual for cross-compatible part numbers, or contact info@nationalhvacparts.com with your model number for confirmation.

Goodman CAP050800440RTS 80/5 MFD 440V Dual Run Capacitor

The Goodman CAP050800440RTS is a genuine OEM dual run capacitor rated 80/5 MFD at 440 volts, built for the WGPH4560AMAA packaged air conditioner. A dual capacitor serves two loads at once: the 80 µF section gives the compressor its starting and running torque, while the 5 µF section drives the condenser fan motor. When a capacitor weakens or fails, you'll see hard starts, a humming compressor that won't spin up, a stalled fan, or a tripped breaker — replacing it is the most common AC repair.

Specifications

Capacitance: 80/5 MFD (µF), dual run
Voltage rating: 440 VAC (compatible with 370V applications)
OEM part number: CAP050800440RTS
Brand: Goodman
Equipment: Air Conditioner (package unit)
Primary fit: WGPH4560AMAA
Terminals: Quick-connect (HERM / FAN / C)

OEM vs. Generic

The genuine Goodman capacitor is rated to the exact µF and voltage the WGPH4560AMAA expects, with a temperature and tolerance spec that matches factory life expectancy. Off-brand caps often run looser tolerances and lower-grade dielectric, shortening service life. OEM keeps the compressor and fan running at design torque.

Installation

Difficulty: Moderate (2/5). Electrical safety required. Shut off power at the disconnect and discharge the old capacitor before touching terminals. Photograph the wiring, transfer leads to the matching HERM/FAN/C terminals, and secure with the strap. About 20–30 minutes. If unsure about discharging, hire a licensed HVAC technician.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Goodman WGPH4560AMAA — CAP050800440RTS?

Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Goodman WGPH4560AMAA — CAP050800440RTS. 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 Goodman WGPH4560AMAA — CAP050800440RTS?

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 Goodman 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 Goodman 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?
