OEM Payne Run Capacitor P291-4554 for PA12NA048000AGAA

Maintain smooth, efficient motor operation with this OEM Payne run capacitor, made for the Payne PA12NA048000AGAA package air conditioner. The run capacitor supplies the steady electrical charge that keeps the compressor and condenser fan motor turning under load, boosting efficiency and prolonging motor life. A failing capacitor — often bulged or leaking — causes hard starts, humming, overheating, or breaker trips. This genuine OEM dual-rated replacement matches the factory microfarad (MFD) and voltage specifications for an exact, safe fit. Always verify the MFD and voltage stamped on your existing capacitor before ordering. Installation is easy for a careful DIYer: cut power, discharge the old capacitor with an insulated tool, photograph and transfer the wiring, and mount the new one — about 20 to 30 minutes. An OEM-spec capacitor avoids the premature motor failures that mismatched generic parts can cause. In stock and shipping same-day for orders placed before 3PM CST, getting your cooling back to full strength fast. Order genuine Payne parts at NationalHVACParts.com.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this Run Capacitor fit my Payne PA12NA048000AGAA?
Yes. This is the factory-specified OEM run capacitor for the Payne PA12NA048000AGAA. 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 run capacitor on my Payne PA12NA048000AGAA?
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 run 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 run 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.
