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.

The Lennox 19H91 is a 5 MFD, 370-volt oval run capacitor that supplies the steady auxiliary current a fan motor needs to maintain torque and efficient operation. Rated at 5 microfarads and 370V, it's commonly used on condenser and blower fan motors across a wide range of Lennox systems.

A failing 5 MFD run capacitor typically shows up as a fan motor that won't spin up, a slow or straining motor, intermittent operation on hot days, or a unit that clicks and buzzes without starting. Swollen tops or oily residue confirm the capacitor has broken down internally.

Installing the correct Lennox 19H91 ensures the exact 5 MFD capacitance and 370V rating your motor was designed around. Using a capacitor with the wrong microfarad or voltage value forces the motor to run hot and fail early, so matching the factory-specified part protects both your motor and your equipment warranty.

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 Lennox 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 Lennox 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.
