My furnace blower motor is not working. Capacitor checks good. Outside unit runs.
Noticed the LED blinks once, go's off and blower will not come on. All was good last
night. Shaft turns free. Any ideas. Thanks

Wow I am suprised you have a real capacitor checker. A OHM meter will not tell the true tale on a capacitor check.

See if voltage is being supplied to the motor.

If not then follow the motor wirs back to find the defective part. It is a good bet the relay is not working. Also make sure the low voltage wiring is OK from the thermostat to the inside unit.

There's lt of neat functions on multimeters. So many that, it acts as a theft deterrant. No one borrows your meter because they can't figure out how to use it.
