Need more motor help
Unfortunately I'm still having motor problems... I was told this motor
had an internal wired capacitor, but when it showed up, the capacitor was obviously external... Not to mention rattling around lose in the box with a big dent in it. I assume that came from the motor hitting it. You'd think getting a basic small motor wouldn't be such a pain in the butt, but this is the third one I've tried. Photo: http://www.ejearchive.com/temp/motor2.jpg There's four wires that they originally had going into a connector. Red and blue on one side, green and white on the other. I have a power cord going into a box with a on/off toggle... How can I wire this up? And is a dented capacitor a problem? It looks to still be sealed. Thanks for any help, Dave |

dent may or may not be a problem - just test the cap with an ohmmeter for a
quick check - if it is OK, then maybe the dent won't be a problem I'd be inclined to connect red and blue to the cap - do any of the leads have terminals on the ends that match the cap? wrote in message oups.com...

Nope... All the leads go into a plug that must have connected into box. |

Figured it out... The guy that sold it sent me a diagram. Thanks for
the help. Dave |
