    Fractional HP elec AC motor wiring?
    I have a salvage pump motor from a Miele dishwasher. The thing was operating fine when it came out so I'm sure it works.
    There are four wires:
    1.) ground (white & Green)
    2.) Black
    3.) Tan
    4.) White
    The motor, when in situ, had a 14 Micro farad Capacitor which I have retained.
    Interestingly the motor states on the ID panel that it wants 14 Microfarads along with a 120 VAC designation.

    The three power wires are shunted to two connector blocks (each block has two green wire leads) with the Black shared between them as a common

    Should that Black common be hot, neutral, or the Capacitor or what? I can't figure how to wire this motor.
