I didn't take remove motor (wish I had--would have diagrammed everything) when new motor arrived, the capacitor was given by sales guy to fit new motor

Have you put the new motor in? What color wires do you have? Have you wired anything up yet? If so what color wire do you have going where?

The brown, brown with white stripe both to capacitor: white to contactor: black(high speed) to fan relay> Red is low speed and blue is med speed,Cap off if only using one speed. The purple and yellow is for fan rotation. They can be reversed for proper rotation of fan. Does this help any?
