    Look on side of new motor for instructions ,which wire goes to what, I can tell you the green and green&white will go to the new capicitor one wire to each post opposite each other
    Not being able to read the label on motor I can`t say for sure where the other 3 wires go,, is the green wire a lot smaler in diameter than the others?

    Their should be a wiring diagram on the side of your new motor. Green is a ground wire screw to the frame, yellow and black are your voltage wires and srew to the load side of the contactor one on each end, brown and brown/white are for your new cap. Which you will have to mount. You are installing a new motor so you allways put on a new cap. Your larger cap that's still there is for your compresser and old fan motor, leave alone. Hook your wires to the contactor correctly line voltage in load voltage out. Small wires on sides are low voltage. Make sure you turn off electric before working
