X13 ecm fan blower motor conversion to psc motor
Hi, I have a Carrier heat pump air conditioner in my home. Last week the fan blower motor stopped working. I called an AC company and the technician said that the blower motor needed to be replaced. Because it was the X13 ECM motor it would cost $1,100 to replace it. I cannot afford that, so after doing research online I saw that you can replace the ECM motor with a PSC motor. I found a video on Youtube that shows a AC technician changing the motor. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eTfM8_Oa1HQ I went to Grainger and purchased a AO Smith PSC motor and a capacitor. I installed it and wired it, but when I turn on the circuit breaker the blower motor runs continuously and the digital thermostat is blank. I must have wired something wrong. Any advice please?

I have a 2 year old Goodman, gas, no heat pump. There is a flashing LED that blinks once ever 4 seconds. Also, blower motor does not stay on always. We did smell something like an electrical burn. I'm guess my blower motor is fried?
