A single run capacitor maintains a continuous phase-shifted current to keep the compressor or condenser fan motor running at peak efficiency after startup. When this capacitor degrades or fails, the affected motor may hum loudly without starting, overheat, draw excessive amperage, or cause the unit to short-cycle — all of which can lead to costly secondary damage if left unaddressed. This part covers OEM part numbers \u003cstrong\u003eP291-1003\u003c\/strong\u003e and \u003cstrong\u003eP291-1503\u003c\/strong\u003e, both factory-authorized single run capacitors for this model.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSpecs:\u003c\/strong\u003e Single run capacitor | 370V or 440V rated (verify MFD and voltage on your unit's data plate) | Round or oval case | Factory-matched tolerance for precise motor protection | OEM part numbers P291-1003 and P291-1503\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOEM vs Generic:\u003c\/strong\u003e OEM capacitors are manufactured to exact factory MFD tolerance (±3%), ensuring stable motor performance and full compressor protection.
