What HP motor do I need for my Tempstar unit?

The correct replacement for Tempstar model TXH548GKA200 — OEM 1177473 | 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 TXH548GKA200 — OEM 1177473 | 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 is the genuine OEM 1/4 HP condenser fan motor (part number 1177473) for the Tempstar TXH548GKA200 heat pump. The condenser fan motor spins the outdoor fan that moves air across the condenser coil, rejecting heat in cooling mode and absorbing heat in heat-pump mode. A failing motor robs the system of heat transfer, driving up head pressure, overheating the compressor, and tripping breakers. Typical symptoms include a fan that hums but won't turn, a motor that overheats and cycles on its internal overload, noisy or grinding bearings, or a fan that stops while the compressor keeps running. Replacing it quickly protects the much costlier compressor.

Access — Remove the top grille/fan assembly screws and lift the fan and motor from the cabinet.
Document — Photograph all motor and capacitor wire connections before disconnecting.
Remove — Loosen the fan-blade set screw, pull the blade off the shaft, and unbolt the motor from the bracket.
Install — Mount the new motor, set the fan blade to the correct depth, tighten the set screw, and reconnect wiring per your photo (including capacitor leads).
Test — Restore power and confirm the fan spins freely in the correct direction and head pressure normalizes.

My AC fan isn’t spinning. What part do I need?

Should I use OEM or aftermarket for my Tempstar fan motor?
