Motors & Armatures 10728 1/4 hp 1075 RPM - 1 Speed 1.8 Amp Outdoor Condenser Fan Motor

I cancelled my home warranty appointment. Installed this motor and my AC worked smoothly now. It saved me $125 for initial diagnose test with electrician plus possible thousands more for repair. Thank for this product

Replace my 15 year old AC fan motor. It kept stop running after 30 minutes of run time. Replaced the capacitor but the problem persisted. Next logical step is the motor itself. It would have cost me a tone of money had I called the A/C repair guy. (The last service guy from a well known local service company told me that I need a brand new unit for $3 grand and he can knock it down by $500 if I let him have it. I had different honest guy came to look and turn out to be just a simple dirty coil). The motor is bi-directional and it came with clockwise setting. My fan motor is hang up side down so I have to reverse the flow direction in order to get the correct air flow. Air should be blowing upward, not down. It's an easy task, just follow the instruction to connect the color wires for flow direction setting. Wiring diagram is clearly listed and simple. The mounting bolts are way too long so I have to cut them with a bolt cutter to prevent the fan blades from hitting them. It does not come with wire terminals so you have to buy them separate at the local hardware store or HomeDepot. AC is back running.

Great motor replaced on a Lennox condencer. It has wires with exposed connectors that can fill with water. Use some electrical tape or something g to keep the rain out.. very quiet works great. Had to cut the fan shaft it was too long / hitting my pump

Works like a champ, but it needed some work which took some extra time with getting it in. Having it reversable is a great option - since there are differences in opinion on how CCW and CW rotation are referenced. The wire exit point is off 45 degrees with typical condenser motors, but there was room to make it work. I ended up putting shrink wrap over the reversing connections to keep them covered. The extra long shaft was no issue, I just left it long. I did trim the mounting screws, though but always good to have extra. I did have to lengthen the wires, but no big deal. I may order another just to have on hand because of it's universal fit.

My 10+ year old AC fan stopped working even after I replaced the capacitor. So the next suspect is the motor. I called my AC guy but he wanted to charge me almost $500 to come and put in an aftermarket motor. But when I saw this MARS motor, I decided to give it a try. The MARS motor is similar in specs to my old fan motor just slightly less than the 1110 RPM in mine. The bolts that stick out of the new motor are a bit long. So I decided to use a hack saw on them and snack them off. My old motor has 3 wires vs the 4 wires that came with the MARS motor. I did not use the brown stripe wire in my dual capacitor configuration. I also measured the distance from the back of the old motor to the point where the fan blades attach to the motor shaft. This gave me an idea where to attach my old fan to the new motor. Also, my fan hangs upside down in my AC unit and I had to change the wiring to have air blow out of the AC unit. These are the short colored wiring that sticks out of the motor. Once I hooked up the motor to my dual capacitor and contactor, it fired up the first time. So I saved over $400 dollars vs letting my AC guy change the motor. If you are a DIY'er and likes to tinkle with electronics as I do, this is an easy project. One final tip - pull the rubber plug out on the bottom of the motor to let condensation moisture out. If you do not do it, the moisture will damage the motor over time.

This is a great universal motor. It comes with an extra long shaft you can trim to the length you need with a hack saw or sawzall. The direction it spins if reversible with by just swapping two wires. It fits exactly in place of my old motor and the wires plug right into place. And it was over night delivered at no extra cost! I can't recommend more highly.

It was an easy install for my husband and son. Quick delivery and secure packaging. Good price too. It's working great so far. No issues.

This looks like a good motor. It may be . What it is not is a direct replacement for the GE 1/4 HP fan motor that it is listed to be. I have to swap out all 4 hut and bolt sets that hold the motor together in order for it to fit properly in my Trane XE 1000 condenser. I also had to cut the shaft. Then came the fun electrical part. This motor can spin either way CW or CCW. (Those are the 4 wires that get on the way of the fan.). Now we get to the 4 wires out of the motor to the condenser. The old one had 3. That you do with the extra brown wire is connect it to the common on the capacitor . This was not plug and play for sure but it does work.
