Just bought a new fan motor for my a/c & it has one more wire than my old one did. Need help installing.
Is this the inside blower motor? What color wire is extra? How do you have it wired now?
It is the condenser fan motor that goes on the outside unit.the one I had b-4 had 3 wires this one has 4, the old one has 1 black,1 red , & 1 brown wire & the new one has 2 brown, 1 black, & one yellow wire along with arun capacitor

The 2 brown are for rhe capacitor
The old one didn't have a capacitor, so where would I plug it in
Do you have a dual capacitor? A dual would be for compressor and fan motor.It would be in control section of unit
OK sorry was trying to look at it. My old fan is an A.O.Smith m# F48EO6A48
H/P>1/4 RPM>1100. The unit model # BRCQO361CB 36,000 BTU
IT has a tall round capacitor & the new capacitor is a split cap. short & oval the new motor is also an A.O. Smith m#FSE1026SV1 RPM>1075
You should have 2 post on the new cap.Each post will have 2 or 4 tabs on them Place 1 brn wire on one tab on one post and the other on the other post on a tab. It doesn't matter which wire goes where
What About The Other Wires That Are On The Old Capacitor Does It Matter Where They Goon The New Capacitor
You should only need 1 cap.Does the round cap have markings such as 5/35 ;5/45 or anyhow 2 numberings? If this is the case you have a dual cap meaning the 5 is for the fan motor and the 35 or 45 is for the compressor
