    I'm a little confused about the wiring new motor has br,br/wh,bl,wh. I understand brns go to cap. Separate posts however where on the contactor does the white and black go on .Question is it possible that I received the wrong motor and it can't possible be wired? My previous motor had yellow and brown wire-caped,bl. pur,orange. Assist
