The number you need is on that label. Type it below. No account, no dealer login, no distributor locator. If we carry the remanufactured OEM-spec equivalent, you get the product page and the price on this screen.
Partial numbers work. Searching 5SME39NXL returns the whole family; searching the full number returns the exact match.
What this cross-reference actually does
A Genteq ECM blower motor carries two identities: the Genteq part number stamped on the motor itself (the 5SME39 or 5SME44 series number), and the OEM number the equipment manufacturer assigned it (Carrier HD46AR242, Trane MOT13906, Goodman 0131M00024, and so on). A tech in an attic usually has one of the two, rarely both. This tool accepts either. Our catalog carries the Genteq number in the product title and the OEM cross-reference numbers as searchable attributes, so both paths land on the same remanufactured motor.
What you get back is not a "suggested universal replacement". It is an OEM-spec remanufactured Genteq motor, built from genuine Genteq cores, programmed to the original parameters, with a two-year warranty against the one-year industry standard.
Reading a Genteq ECM part number
Almost every number in the family follows the same pattern. Decoding it tells you which motor generation and horsepower you are holding before you even search.
| Segment | Meaning | Example |
|---|---|---|
| 5SME39 | Frame family, 5.6" diameter ECM | 5SME39NXL120 |
| 5SME44 | Larger frame, higher output | 5SME44JG1005 |
| DXL | 1/3 HP class | 5SME39DXL054A |
| HL | 1/2 HP class | 5SME39HL0252 |
| NXL | 3/4 HP class | 5SME39NXL089 |
| SXL | 1 HP class | 5SME39SXL003 |
| Trailing digits | Listing variant tied to the specific OEM application | …120, …089, …054A |
The trailing digits matter. Two motors that look identical and share the frame and horsepower can be listed against completely different equipment, so cross-reference on the full number whenever you have it.
Browse by motor family

Cross-reference by equipment brand
If you have the furnace or air handler model rather than the motor, the brand pages list the motors that fit each line: Carrier, Trane, Goodman, Lennox, Rheem, York, American Standard, Bryant, Amana, Nordyne, Heil, Tempstar, Ruud, Payne, Coleman, Comfortmaker, Westinghouse, Bard, Daikin, ICP.
Before you order
Confirm the motor actually failed before you cross-reference it. A large share of "dead ECM" calls are a failed control board, a low-voltage fault or a seized wheel, and a new motor fixes none of those. Work the sequence in How to test an ECM blower motor first, then come back with a verdict.

Questions techs ask
Do you need the OEM number or the Genteq number?
Either one. If both are legible, use the Genteq number, since it identifies the motor unambiguously and the OEM number sometimes maps to more than one revision.
What if the nameplate is burnt off?
Identify the equipment model and serial instead, then use the HVAC serial number lookup or send the photos to technical support.
Do the motors arrive programmed?
Yes. Motors ship programmed to the original application parameters, so the replacement is plug and play in the great majority of installs. Speed tap changes are covered in how to fix the motor speed.
Is a remanufactured motor the same as used?
No. Cores are stripped, rebuilt with new bearings and electronics as required, reprogrammed and tested. Details on the quality control page and in are your products remanufactured.
What warranty applies?
Two years. Scope and procedure are on the warranty center.
