    Conderser fan motor quits on thermal overload
    IT runs for about three or four min. and quits. The old motor would not run at all it's a new motor and capacitor. The contact voltages checked good. The only thing left is the thermister and the control board. The thermister does get pretty warm. Please help

    Verify that the new motor is wired correctly, and the capacitor for the fan motor is good & correctly sized.
