A direct-fit replacement for select Carrier furnace draft inducer assemblies. The Packard 66758 is a 58-watt PSC motor running at 115V and 3400 RPM, built with ball bearings and automatic overload protection. Capacitor and 3-prong Molex plug are included -- no scrounging for extra parts before installation.
The draft inducer motor is the workhorse that pulls combustion gases through your furnace heat exchanger and vents them safely out of the flue before the main burner ignites. When this motor fails, the furnace locks out entirely -- no heat until it is replaced. The Packard 66758 is engineered to restore factory performance without custom wiring or bracket modifications.
This motor cross-references directly to the OEM Carrier part numbers listed below and slots into the same inducer housing using the existing mounting hardware. The pre-wired 3-prong Molex connector matches the factory harness, and the included capacitor means you have everything needed to complete the swap.
Permanent Split Capacitor (PSC) motor provides efficient, reliable single-speed operation at 3400 RPM. Capacitor is included in the box -- no separate purchase needed.
Ball bearings instead of sleeve bearings for longer service life, lower heat buildup, and quieter operation over extended heating seasons.
Internal thermal overload protector shuts the motor down if it exceeds safe operating temperature, protecting your furnace control board from cascading failures.
3-prong Molex plug is pre-installed and matches the OEM Carrier harness connector. Plug-and-play installation -- no splicing or crimping required.
The Packard 66758 (also sold as NBK Parts 20290) is a confirmed replacement for the following OEM and aftermarket part numbers:
Before ordering, confirm your existing inducer assembly uses one of the OEM part numbers listed above, or visually verify the motor nameplate reads 115V / 60Hz / 3400 RPM / 1.45A. The Molex connector and motor frame are matched to the Carrier housing -- forcing this motor into a non-compatible assembly risks damage.
