Is there another little piece of equipment like a little fan or something connected to the red and blue wires at the wiring block? If that sits down at the bottom of the unit, that could get wet and corroded over time and short out the red and blue wires at the block where your red and blue wires go to the condensor fan motor. Unplug them and find out if a short is blowing your thermal fuse in the condensor fan motor. You can completely isolate the condensor fan motor by unplugging all of the other wires from the wiring block except the input power wires. The red one comes from the power control board relay. The blue one, is just the white wire from the power cord unswitched. The condensor will not run while you do this test, but it doesn't matter. You want to see the condensor fan motor run and run for awhile without blowing the fuse. The ambient room temperature sensor will never trip the circuit since you aren't cooling anything. Oh, that reminds me, when you do this, turn the thermostat all of the way down to force the temperature sensor to trip to close main relay on the power control board. Listen for the audible click of the relay and the fan should turn on. This may happen immediately or it might take up to 3 minutes just after you plug in the unit. So, if your thermal fuse still blows under these conditions, you have a short in the motor winding and its time for a new motor. If all goes well and things go wrong when you reconnect that other little fan, just don't plug that other unit in again until you can replace it with a unit that isn't corroded. If all goes well, but the problem only return when the compressor is added back into the circuit, there is probably a short in the compressor or the wires leading to it has a partial short ( some resistance) Check for wires that have been rubbing on something and have worn away or been pinched. Good luck. I would love to hear if this turns out to be complicated or simple.

You should have two wires that go to a capacitor for turning the motor the right way durring start up then you should have two wires for run current. Now my motor has red and blue as the run voltage and blue and a white wire to the capacitor -6uf+/-10-5%@250AC. This cap is mounted on your fan shroud and refer to you top motor wire configuration, as both blower motors is in like the same wire colors to cap. Now my lower motor keeps blowing the thermal fuse and dose not overheat as the thermal needs at least 360 degrees of heat to blow yet my moter when running is not that hot.... I would replace the motor and cant seem to find one where did you find yours.

Hello, I am replacing my old air conditioner blower motor. I Purchased a new blower motor that has more wires than the old one. It has a brown, brown with white, black, red, blue and all white. I am...

Brown/BrownWhite is for the capacitor. Black/Red/Blue are likely speed wires, meaning you choose one of those along with the white for your 240 volts. If you choose Black, which is likely high speed, red and blue get capped and are extra. Hope this helps.

Melted red wire under dash does the wire connect to the blower motor or blower resistor 1996 chevy k2500

The heater / blower in my 1992 dlx has stopped working all fuses ok

Hello hfg.

1. First of all, tap the blower motor gently to see if it starts it. If it does, the brushes or the armature in the motor are worn- replace the motor.
2. If that doesn't help wiggle the connector on the motor and the blower motor resistor. There may be burned or loose connections.
3. If you have power on fuse 7 with the key on, then check for power at the blower motor on the blue white wire. If no power on it you have a break in the wire between the fuse and the blower.
4. Next, check for power on the blue black wire. If there is power there that proves there is continuity through the motor(that's good), if not, replace the motor.
5. The blue black wire then goes to the blower resistor. this resistor gives the different blower speeds.
inside the resistor there is a thermal fuse. It isn't replaceable, only the resistor as an assembly.
If the thermal fuse blows it may indicate that the blower motor is beginning to wear out and draw too many amps. And then you may need to replace both the blower and the resistor.
Check with an ohmmeter across the thermal fuse. If it is open circuit, replace the resistor and the blower. If you don't replace the blower it may blow the new resistor again.
6. If it all checks out to this point, ground the blue/red wire at the resistor. If the blower comes on the problem then becomes the blower switch or a break in the wire to the switch.

Whew.. Hope this helps solve the problem, my fingers are sore..Ha.

Thanks for using FixYa.

Replacing AC blower motor

ITS CALLED SURGERY take picture as ya go and have a big bucket for screws. make sure you have your motor and capacitor tested first before you replace it unless you know its bad (hp,sf &rpm must match !!!! on new motor ) little guys are real expensive and are a three speed motor and must be hooked up right or you will burn it UP ! do this in the shade cuz it aint no fun in the hot sun(me Florida) the first thing i would do is oil the motor then have the capacitor checked , the motor may not need to be replaced just serviced ?.. hay now if'n i was any help write a review of thanks or just VOTE,, MOTORWIZJ ..FL

2001 jeep grand cherokee a/c

Just want to let you and the other guy know that I have been having the same issue with the A/C in my '01 Grand Cherokee Limited...I have taken it in to get it fixed twice already and now I have an appointment for a third time. The first time it was the blower motor resistor...then it stopped working again after like 3 months of enjoying the A/C. Took it back to the same guy thinking something they did went bad but it ended up being the blower motor itself that went bad...so had to have that replaced. Now I am taking it back and the guy has no idea why it stopped working again but he said he would take a look. All in all i have already spent well over $400 on parts and labor b/c I don't know the first thing about cars! Hope this helps and I will try to keep you posted in what I find out! Gotta get it fixed before winter or else I am gonna freeze my *** off!

Microwave blower motor wiring

I have an OH SUNG from a different model micro and have hooked it up every which-way I could and some how managed NOT to mess it up. I finally realized I needed the 6 microfarad capacitor across the RED and YELLOW. Works like a champ. ****** can move some air btw. I am thinking about thowing this puppy in my PC when I overclock it...

Maybe your VIOLET = BLUE and YELLOW = ORANGE?
