Replacing an X-13 ECM motor with a PSC (capacitor) motor.

It's Saturday but the Georgia game don't start till 3 30 so I'm gonna catch a few calls and she said the blower's not working. Probably got an x13. All right who did this? I um I looked on my on my books and we haven't been here since this thing was installed so who'd they call to do that? I got the um blower turned on. If I come back I need to get me a strap. I got other people that help me with the installs now this is how i used to do my rain hoods because there's such a pain in the butt to pull apart just put me a lip and some screws on it that way if i ever have to get to it i can just unscrew the top and take it apart because it's spinning we know it's getting voltage and we know it's getting a call so um i guess all we got to do is ohm out that motor I have made the mistake. I think we have all gotten shocked when we shouldn't. I've made the mistake of leaving these plugged up with power on and touching this coil right there. Let me tell you that hurts. All right we're going to ohm this out and I know I've made other videos on how to do it but basically this is a DC motor sort of. They call it a DC motor with a square sine wave. so it has a sine wave that only goes in one direction so it's sort of like an ac motor but it is a dc motor we're going to all right first of all on the ground see if i can show you what i'm what i'm reading it's hard to show you this that's showing wait a minute i thought i saw mega ohms to ground you see for a second there it shows mega ohms you know what that does too i'm not gonna try and replace a module when i'm getting some kind of readings like that right now i'm actually i got the power turned on and i'm testing to see which lead because i've only got the fan turned on and if you can see that i'm getting 28 volts on my blue wire so that's going to be g right there and if i put a relay in here that's what i'm going to use for g this is going to be common these are my two powers so i got everything i need right here to put a relay and uh get this thing going this customer um i gave him the option of the rescue x13 motor or the PSC and he opted for the PSC that is what we are about to do this is one of those motors that has uh heat strips back there we're going to take those off all right so first we're going to take that off i got to say first time i saw one of these heater kits i um i didn't know where to put it it took a little bit of looking around before i figured out what i was looking at move a little bit be real careful because on the bottom side of this there ain't a whole lot holding that on that trick for that our motor relay capacitor but first let's check this 1050 rpm you can do that 9340 relay we're doing half horsepower 10 microfarad that's what that is and this is half horsepower 10 microfarad, so i got what i've got this mounted up i'm gonna try to put these leads more towards the center between these two arms there all right we want our our leads put them up here that's about it on tightening those up this is all this on the other side you would think it would be a welded nut or something but if you torque down on these that'll start turning right there let's do um this thing up over there first i'm gonna do the power do the power wires this um yellow right here is one of my legs of power wire that straight to my white on these 9340s down here is my low voltage up here this is my power lug this is normally open and this is normally excuse me normally closed to normally open it's on the relay for you to look at i don't know if you can see that little diagram this is normally closed you see this little break right here this is normally open this on this spade connector this yellow is power this is ground this black is power and this brown is common so this is the one that i need to hook to the other side of that it was a little bit confusing because there was a black on here, but that's low voltage. I hope I didn't confuse anybody. And I'm putting this, like I said, this is normally open, normally closed. This is going to the blower. This is power 24/7. So if we did a heat strip, it would go to here. We're not doing that. All right. We saw that this blue was where we were getting a call when G or green was energized so that's one of the ones going to low voltage on the bottom of that relay now this is like i said energized when g is energized from the thermostat all we need is common and it's right here that's my common all right all right that's wired up all these others are going to have to be capped off that my browns are going to my capacitor i got another one right here but now i cap off all bit of recap before i start putting zip ties on all this of course the brown goes to your capacitor this is black from my motor this is black from what was this bay connector black right there and this yellow is power so yellow goes straight to white black is broken by the relay and this is going to be g and that's my comment that is still set for it to bring on the fan so we're I'm just checking rotation and right now. I don't think it's going the right way. Oh, yeah, it's going backwards I must have looked at it wrong. That happens at horsepower See what I see when I open this up you see that amp draw a lot better It's below the rated amps, which is 3.6. So we're doing good. I'll tell you what those folks in there know happy I was able to fix it energizes G when there's just a call for a call for heat that goes to your heat strips over there to that normally flow so it energizes G call turn on emergency 13 volt motor to a PSC I hope I didn't make
