Genteq c3455r GE Round Capacitor 45 5 uf MFD, 97F9895, Z97F995, 97F9895BZ3, 27L880, 370V

Replaced the failed capacitor on my old AC unit. Hopefully I can get a few more years out of it before I have to actually replace it.

The media could not be loaded. In quick summary, this replaced my existing GE 97F9895 HC98JA046D and fix my problem of cold air not coming out due to the fan from outside unit not running.Below is the whole story as an FYI and exact issue and symptom that I saw if you are interested.Yesterday(Friday) morning, I heard some strange noise and it sounded like it was coming from outside some where but not my house. Later in the late afternoon, I noticed inside temperature was warmer than usual and the air blowing wasn't much cooler than running regular fan. At first I thought it was because outside was too hot as we were just getting over the heatwave. Then I became more suspicious and noticed that the fan from outside unit wasn't turning, but air was blowing from the vents. I've experienced something similar before where I had to turn off the thermostat and wait maybe 15 to 30 minutes for somethings to get reset then when I turn back on, things worked. So I did that, but this time, it was still the same. So I looked into more and noticed that noise I heard in the morning might have been coming from my unit outside. Something seems to be trying to start, but it wasn't getting started and after few minutes the noise stopped. I thought maybe it's doing a self-shutdown to protect damaging itself. So I first turned off AC and just ran the fan as turning on AC made no difference anyways. And I wanted to avoid any further damage. I then made appointment with HVAC service for Monday afternoon. Then I remember my neighbor telling me long ago how simple it was to just replace some part of AC unit and fixed his problem. So I did some search on web and it looked like my problem was with the capacitor. So I did some more search on YouTube on how to replace the capacitor as well as about discharging the capacitor which is a very important step.See the included video for the problem and image for the part that was replacing.Then I saw this part and it had overnight shipping was like $8 or $9, but Amazon prime trial was only $1.99 and I could get it next day by 10PM for free. I usually get my stuff from Amazon early afternoon, so I joined the prime trial and ordered using regular prime next day shipping. There was an option to pay $2-$3 extra to get it early in the morning, but I didn't take that option which I should have.I got the part next day(Saturday) around 3:30PM. We were lucky that it was kind of cloudy in the morning, so things were just starting to get hot now. I already did prep work on my outside unit so that all I have to do is just replace when the part comes and close it up. I discharged the new capacitor just in case someone had charged it before and returned without discharging. Discharged the existing capacitor again just to be safe. And it took maybe 5 minutes to get it replaced and put things back. And I got my cold air back!!! Inside temperature on 2nd floor was 88 F and so it's taking a long time to cool it down. And this is the part where I now regret that I should have paid extra $2-$3 shipping and get the part early in the morning so that I could fix this before inside became that hot.So I spent around $25(including Prime trial), got the part next day in the afternoon, and probably saved minimum $200 for HVAC service guy doing this for me. I just hope this thing stays running for another 15+ years!

Perfect replacement for my AC! Arrived fast, install was quick, less than 10 min. AC is working great!

PERFECT replacement for my two Carrier 3 ton units. Very easy to replace! I replace my contactors at the same time every 3 years! Can’t beat Amazons prices for these items!! I paid a A/C tech over $250 to replace these on one unit ONCE! Never again!!

Works but its narrower and taller than my previous one.d

Fast delivery, good price.

I'm not sure when our air stopped working but since it started warming up outside, our house would NOT cool. It would blow air but wouldn't actually cool down and the fan outside was not working. I like to fix things myself if I can as it's good to have the knowledge to do so and of course great to save money where you can. I know nothing about HVAC systems but I did research on YouTube and based on the symptoms, this seemed like the first thing to try. I took the cover off my HVAC and noticed the old capacitor looked quite bad. It was really rusty and the top was swollen, so definitely needed replaced either way. I bought this, received it in a couple of days and replacing the old one was extremely quick and easy and it was the perfect size. Turned my air back on, gave it a couple hours checking the temp every half hour, and my house finally cooled down on a 95° day. I imagine calling someone to come out to check on it would've been hundreds of dollars so thank goodness this worked!

Woke up yesterday morning to a warm, stuffy room. Nice! Spent some time with some basic troubleshooting. No dice!After exhausting the basics, I discovered my condenser fan wasn't coming on. I could hear the motor buzzing, though. I gave it a spin with a stick, and it slowly started building up speed. Yeeha! I thought, maybe a bad motor, but maybe I can limp it until I find a replacement. Nooooo. Maxed out at a low speed, sounding like it kept wanting to go faster, but couldn't. Started looking around a bit more.Did some more research and found a few videos talking about the symptoms of a bad start/run capacitor. Sure sounded like my situation. Ordered this one, and it arrived today - next day.Spent maybe an hour, taking my time, getting it swapped out and checking some stuff. Fan started up properly, but my system was stuck in heat mode. Shut everything off a couple of times, but it took me switching it into Heat mode, then off for a while, then on again in Cool for it to actually switch to cooling.Cooling again for $35 for the capacitor and breaker, and a little time researching. Not to take away from the HVAC pros - I don't get a full system check-out doing this stuff myself. This system's American Standard, only 5yrs old. I do have the 5+5 warranty on it, but I swear, the old Trane I had when I bought this place ran longer, trouble-free, and it was already old when I got here...
