OEM Payne Dual Run & Start Capacitor Kit for Model PA13NR04200GAEAA

This OEM capacitor kit includes both the P291-5553RS Dual Run Capacitor and the P281-8806 Start Capacitor, factory-specified replacements for the Payne PA13NR04200GAEAA split-system air conditioner. Capacitors store and release the electrical charge required to start and run the compressor and condenser fan motor. A failing capacitor is one of the most common causes of AC failure — symptoms include a loud hum with no motor movement, the system shutting off within minutes of starting, or the condenser fan spinning slowly or not at all. Replacing both the dual run and start capacitor together ensures full system reliability and prevents repeat service calls.

  • Specs: Includes P291-5553RS Dual Run Capacitor (370V/440V rated, round case) and P281-8806 Start Capacitor — both factory-matched OEM components with tight ±3% MFD tolerance for precise motor protection.
  • OEM vs Generic: OEM capacitors are manufactured to Payne's exact electrical specifications. Generic alternatives commonly carry a loose ±10% MFD tolerance, which accelerates compressor and fan motor wear and can void equipment warranties.
  • Install Difficulty: 2/5 — Always discharge capacitors fully before handling any terminals. Tools needed: 1/4" nut driver, needle-nose pliers, insulated screwdriver, and a multimeter to verify discharge. Photograph all wiring connections before removal.
  • Warranty: 1-year OEM factory warranty on both components. Orders ship the same business day from our stocked warehouse.

Compatibility: Engineered specifically for the Payne PA13NR04200GAEAA 4-ton, 13 SEER single-stage R-410A split-system condenser. Always verify MFD and voltage ratings against your unit's data plate before ordering. Our fitment specialists are available to confirm compatibility before you buy — same-day shipping available on all in-stock OEM parts.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Capacitor fit my Payne PA13NR04200GAEAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM capacitor for the Payne PA13NR04200GAEAA. 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 Payne PA13NR04200GAEAA?
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 Payne 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 Payne 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?
Orders placed before 3:00 PM CST ship the same business day. Standard delivery is 2–5 business days anywhere in the continental United States. Express shipping available at checkout. We ship from Houston, TX to all 50 states. 30-day return policy on all parts.
