What is the picture of? Your new motor that you wired?
It says right in the instructions that some may have a blue and white conductor connected together. |

Do you still have the blue jumper installed between terminal 4 and 1/4" tab? It looks like that needs to be removed and then your loose grey conductor needs to be connected to the 1/4" tab per the instructions. what threw me off was the wire looks more white than grey, so leave the blue there, and connect the lone grey/white wire on the terminal 4 |

as it stands i have everything like in the photo. i will give that a shot. what threw me off was the wire looks more white than grey, so leave the blue there, and connect the lone grey/white wire on the terminal 4 That is my interpretation of the directions. I did not see how the original was wired and I don't have the schematics so take it with a grain of salt. If you aren't sure it may be best to call a professional. |
