Dual Run Capacitor
The capacitor provides the initial electrical phase shift required to generate the starting torque for both the compressor and the condenser fan motor. Thermal stress or dielectric breakdown causes these components to fail, preventing the compressor from starting while the R96V furnace blower continues to circulate unconditioned air.

Electromechanical Contactor
The contactor acts as the heavy-duty switch that closes to provide 240V power to the outdoor unit upon receiving a 24V signal from the furnace. Over time, the silver-cadmium contacts can become pitted or carbon-fouled, creating high resistance that prevents current flow to the compressor despite the furnace blower running normally.

Integrated Furnace Control (IFC) Board
The IFC board in the R96V manages the 24V signal routing between the thermostat and the outdoor condenser. If the onboard cooling relay fails, the board may successfully energize the blower motor (G terminal) but fail to send power to the outdoor unit (Y terminal), resulting in air movement without refrigeration.
