    Condenser Fan Motor Old 3-wire to New 4-wire Help Needed
    Hello, I have an A.O. Smith Condenser Motor and told this was the correct replacement. The old motor is 3-wire and the new motor is 4-wire. I have attached images. Can someone please explain which wires on the new motor go to the old connections.

    My question is where do the new 4 wires connect in relation to the old 3 wires. I was told the Brwn/White wire is not used. But I Want to confirm and also verify that BlK goes to Blk, Brwn to Brwn and Then Yellow to Purple? Please help. Thank you in advance

    What you have is a brown and brown/white which goes to a 5uf start capacitor. The black is to high line of the 230 contactor andwhite is to common of contacter. What I am saying is back and white well be your 230 volts and brown and brown white to run cap
