Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

I called the Hvac tech and he came out here. He checked the motor and informed me that the motor doesn't have enough horsepower. He said that I need one that has about 1/4 horsepower and the one I have has 1/8 horsepower. it's part number 621300

Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

Re-positioned fan blades, motor ran SLIGHTLY longer and then stopped again. Later, it rained and I decided to see if it was that the motor was heating up and getting too hot, as usual, the motor was painfully hot.

Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

Alright, I'll get an hvac expert up asap. The fan blades had scooted on up the shaft against the motor, but the motor itself is still getting too hot.

Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

Alright, we got the motor hooked up correctly, but now, the motor seems to get extremely hot after about 5 minutes and shuts off. Coul;d that simply be a fan blade positioning problem?

Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

Alright. I got a new run capacitor. Do you mean that I need both capacitors? How do I go about getting the oval fan run capacitor?

Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

Nevermind, I found out that the fan run cap was bad, I removed the T1 to Cap connection and directly connected the fan to T1 and it works.

Re: Nodyne s3qa-042k Fan Motor Wiring

furnace facing? I don't understand. I got the fan up and running, had to run the fan line to T1 through the fan run cap(you were right). Now, however, the fan motor will not run, nor does the capacitor make any noise whatsoever.
