What HP motor do I need for my Tempstar unit?

The correct replacement for Tempstar model TXA661GKA100 — OEM Replacement | Ships Today 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 Tempstar equipment which lists the model number TXA661GKA100 — OEM Replacement | Ships Today.

My AC fan is not spinning. What part do I need?

A fan that does not spin, spins slowly, or makes grinding or squealing noises needs a new motor. Grinding means the bearings have failed. Squealing means the bearings are dry. No spin with a humming sound means the capacitor may be the issue. Check the motor capacitor before replacing the entire motor.

Is this fan motor compatible with Bryant or Payne systems too?

Many Tempstar 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.

Overview

This OEM 1/4 HP condenser fan motor (part 1177473) drives the outdoor fan blade on the Tempstar TXA661GKA100, pulling air across the condenser coil to reject heat. Adequate airflow is critical — a failing fan motor causes high head pressure, poor cooling, compressor overheating, and eventual compressor damage. Motors fail from worn bearings, a burnt winding, or a failed run capacitor. Telltale signs include a hot, noisy, or seized fan, a motor that hums but won't spin, or a unit that trips on high pressure after a short runtime.
