What HP motor do I need for my Tempstar unit?

The correct replacement for Tempstar model TSA536GKA101 — 1/5 HP OEM | 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 TSA536GKA101 — 1/5 HP OEM | 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 condenser fan motor (part #1186447) is the 1/5 HP outdoor fan motor used in the Tempstar TSA536GKA101 condensing unit. It spins the condenser fan blade that pulls air across the outdoor coil, rejecting the heat the system absorbs from your home. When a condenser fan motor fails, head pressure climbs, the compressor overheats and trips on its internal overload, and cooling capacity collapses. Common failure signs include an outdoor fan that hums but won't spin, a fan that runs slowly or stops after a few minutes, a hot motor housing, or a compressor that keeps cycling on overload while the fan sits still. Replacing a worn motor promptly protects the far more expensive compressor.

Compatibility

Engineered as a direct OEM replacement for the Tempstar TSA536GKA101 air conditioner condensing unit and shared across ICP-family outdoor units (Tempstar, Heil, Comfortmaker, Arcoaire) that use the 1/5 HP condenser fan motor. Confirm horsepower, rotation, shaft diameter, and your run capacitor's MFD rating before installing.

Installation Guide

Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor disconnect and breaker. Verify zero voltage with a multimeter before touching any wiring.
Access — Remove the top grille/fan assembly screws and lift the fan deck out of the unit.
Document — Photograph all motor and capacitor wiring, plus the fan blade's position on the shaft, before disconnecting.
Remove — Disconnect motor leads, loosen the blade set screw and pull the blade, then unbolt the old motor from the bracket.
Install — Mount the new motor, reinstall the blade at the same shaft depth, and reconnect leads to the capacitor and contactor per your photo.
Test — Restore power, start a cooling cycle, and verify the fan spins up to full speed in the correct direction (air pulled up and out).

Signs You Need a Replacement

Outdoor fan hums but won't spin, or needs a push to start.
Fan runs slow, wobbles, or has a noisy/seized bearing.
Compressor trips on overload while the fan sits still.
Weak cooling with a very hot outdoor unit and high head pressure.

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

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

OEM recommended for reliability and warranty compatibility. OEM parts match exact factory specifications for proper fit, performance, and safety. While aftermarket alternatives cost less upfront, the risk of improper fit and reduced lifespan usually makes OEM the better value long-term.
