HC98JA041 - 40 + 5 uf MFD 370 Volt VAC - Carrier Round Dual Run Capacitor Upgrade

A/C is working again!

Exact fit

Our A/C has been acting up and research showed it may be the capacitor, so I bought this one. Board on our Carrier Infinity was flashing an 84 error code.Just swapped it out (10-15 minutes) and the A/C is back up and running. Fingers crossed this was the problem and fix.

Was what it said it was

AC pooped out yesterday, it ran OK after I cleaned it a couple weeks ago, but no cool yesterday. Check on the compressor outside, found the fan running backwards. Huh. So did the Google/YouTube thing and found a repair tech who reported the same thing. Watched his video and found it was either the motor capacitor or the motor itself. So I pulled out the capacitor and saw it was swollen on both ends. Should just be a flat ended cylinder. Order replacement from Amazon, here next day, cool air 20 minutes later. No idea how much I saved in service calls and parts. Remarkable.What did we do before the Internet?

Used this to replace the original. So far no issues whatsoever. Worked perfectly but cannot speak to longevity.

This was a perfect match for the old capacitor which was failing. After taking all the necessary safety precautions, I was able to remove the old and install in less than 10 minutes. It’s been working perfectly for the last few months in fairly hot weather.Being able to change this out myself saved me $200. (Please research how to safely work with capacitors before attempting to change one out.)
