Replacing the Motor Module
1 - Disconnect electrical power to unit.
2 - Remove unit access panel.
3 - Unplug the two harnesses from the motor control
module. See figure 14.
4 - Remove the two hex head bolts securing the motor
control module to the motor (see figure 15).
5 - Slide the motor control module away from the motor
to access and disconnect the internal three wire
connector. It is not necessary to remove blower
motor itself. Set both hex head bolts aside.

Testing the Motor (Figure16)
If any motor fails the below tests, do not install the new
control module. The motor is defective and it also must be
replaced.
The new control can fail if placed on a defective motor.
1 - Using an ohmmeter check the resistance from any
one of the motor connector pins to the aluminum
end plate of the motor. This resistance should be
greater than 100k ohms.
2 - Check the resistances between each of the three
motor connector pins. These should all read
approximately the same resistance within an ohm.
3 - Check to see if the blower wheel spins freely.

Motor Module Installation
All replacement motor control modules look similar; how-
ever, each module is designed for a specific motor size.
It is very important to make sure that you are using the
correct replacement motor control module. USE OF THE
WRONG MOTOR CONTROL MODULE MAY RESULT IN
UNEXPECTED UNIT OPERATION.
1 - Verify electrical power to unit is disconnected.
2 - Connect three-wire harness from motor to control
module.
Mount new motor control module to motor using two hex
head bolts removed in figure 10. Torque bolts to 22 inch
pounds or 1/16th clock turn as exampled to the right.
3 - Reconnect the two harnesses to the motor control
module.
4 - The electrical connectors of the motor should be facing
down to form a drip loop (figure12). This will directs
moisture away from the motor and its electric connec-
tions on the motor.
