I was quoted a price of almost $300 to replace my condenser fan motor. For a fraction of that price, this motor matched the specs perfectly, except that this one has ball bearings at each end to ensure even longer life. It was easy to install, I think it took me a couple of hours. I had to trim the shaft and I cut the mounting studs a little shorter. It seems to be a quality part, on par with the original or even better. Mine didn't come with any instructions, so you will need to know a little about wiring a motor. I was able to find specific information online for connecting the included capacitor, as my unit has a combined type of capacitor.

I ordered this motor to replace an OEM unit that cost over $200 without the capacitor or shipping. For about $50, I got the motor, capacitor, and shipping.

This is a 4-wire motor, so if you are replacing a 3-wire unit, you'll have to take care to wire it properly. There are pointers to be found on the Internet if you know an electrician or technician, you might ask for a little advice.

Also, the motor can be wired to run forward or reverse with a pair of jumper wires mine had to be swapped to rotate the fan properly (pulling air out of the condenser unit).

Another issue is that the studs holding the body together are very long. Once I tested operation of the motor, I removed each screw to trim about 1" so that I could move the fan blade as high as possible. The shaft is about 6" long, but I did not trim the excess from it.

Finally, the wires from the motor are only about 18" long. That may not be long enough for some applications. The motor I removed had about 3' of wires. Be sure to use accepted methods if the wires have to be lengthened.

I'm a handy guy, so the extra work to install this motor was worth the savings. If you have to hire an electrician or AC tech to install the motor, it may not save too much. This one's been installed for about a month and is working great.

Recieved quickly. I own several rental properties and bought as a standby motor. Therefore it has not been installed yet. Great price.

At the time of this review the listing details say that capacitor comes with it. Some people did not get the capacitor so immediately after making purchase I sent seller message requesting they include capacitor. They replied fast and polite and said Amazon had not informed them of change to listing details. I got motor fast and capacitor the next day as they were shipped separately (due to shipping origins being different I believe).

I was replacing a motor with a 3 prong capacitor (it is called a dual capacitor not to be confused with 2 pole as that is different aspect of capacitor) and the one that comes with this is a 2 prong. Most of the few motors that include a capacitor are a 2 prong capacitor. IF you are replacing a motor that has 3 prong (dual) capacitor with a motor that is 2 prong and the original capacitor is ok you simply leave original connected to everything except motor you are removing. Generally this will be a wire to compressor and a power wire. Then mount new capacitor and connect new motor to that one. A bad capacitor will generally look bad by having a bulge on either end of the cylinder.

Any time you replace the motor you should clean or replace the contactor. They are pretty cheap on Amazon being around ten bucks and usually you can get them same day locally for about 3 times that. Plan ahead and save some money with Amazon. For the price it is worth just getting new but in a pinch you can clean them up (meaning to clean contacts).

Bad capacitors and or contactors can be cause of fan motor failure but also many times it is simply just a bearing failure in motor too. But for less (often much less) than $30 you can replace both at same time if you order on Amazon. No I don't work for Amazon, lol. Just hope to save someone the problem of getting motor and then wishing they had ordered capacitor and contactor.

KTool was seller when I bought this motor and they are EXCELLENT. (just in case seller changes since I wrote this).

About 7 weeks later with c/a running almost every day and still quiet, smooth, and running perfect.

After reading the description and receiving the Fasco 1/4 HP motor part, a key component to make it work was not included. The 5 MFD Capacitor was not only missing but the shipping box says that it is optional and to order separatley. Amazon Description stated that it was included and never mentions ordering it separately. The product cannot work without it either. Sent an email and received a reply from CSH. CSH will be sending the part out and apologized for the inconvenience. Really thought I was going to have a hard time getting the needed piece. Kudos and Thank you.
