To answer your earlier question, the other answer is correct. To switch the direction, T5 to T8 for most single phase motors, however this is not possible for all motors. Some won't expose sufficient connections to reverse and others will have a physical switch for reversal.
I have a Question. I have an old 12v motor from my van's rear bench seat that folds down. It has 2 wires that come out of it that gets its power from the car. How can i take it appart and add 2 more wire's so it can be use to get power and give power at the same time.
That's frustrating. WEG is a reputable brand. We distribute quite a few and the % of warranty cases isn't higher compared to any other brand we sell. If both motors failed around the same time, I'd definitely look into the root cause further. This video covers a very basic troubleshooting checklist: ruclips.net/video/R7hpQia0WXc/видео.htmlsi=lxcYXDYULlNt2dlN. It could be anything from a bearing issue, overload, wiring issue, poor connections, etc. Contact our team if you're looking for motor replacements in the future: customerservice@emotorsdirect.ca
I have a single phase 1/3 hp electric motor with a start windings that are thin diameter and a run windings that are thicker. The whole motor does not have capacitors to begin with. Its a furnance belt driven blower motor. Everything on you tube has single phase motors with explanations on how do deal, diagnose and repair but none on ones with no capacitors. My understanding is that the primary starting winding for a non capacitor electric motor is 45 degrees out of phase with the run windings. Both windings get their voltage from 24v transformers to provide the kick. I believe the non capacitor electric motor I have has a centrifugal switch to cut the start windings open once the motor reaches speed. Where do I find information on how to test single phase motors without capacitors?
Hi Rafe, I haven't created any content specifically on single phase motors without capacitors and I don't deal with those often. Are you trying to diagnose an induction start induction run motor with a centrifugal switch? The only replaceable part would be the switch. Just based on the information shared, that's where I'd start with the troubleshooting.
Are you asking whether the main or auxiliary winding has higher resistance? If that's the case, the answer is the auxiliary winding due to the higher wire gauge (smaller diameter wire).
Hello sir.. It is glad to see this.. Today I have got multimeter reading of two single phase motor that.. One of them is OL and the other is 11.4 ohms.. What does the second readings mean? Is it good or bad? Thank you.
This was the YT tutorial that taught me how to check my motor winding (which had corroded to create an open circuit)Thanks
Glad this was helpful!
Very good video and explanation
Glad it was helpful!
Thankyou so much

🙏 Very useful. My congratulations.👍
Thanks a lot
Nice job great refresher for me
Glad it helped!
Great!
Thanks!

Thanks for the question. In theory, yes you could do this but it's not my area of expertise.
Any thoughts on WEG motors? My company has recently switched to this manufacturer and I have been gifted with two that have failed with low hours.

Which winding have a great resistance between auxiliary and main winding in the motor?

0L generally indicates no connection between two points. if a motor winding is reading 0L the motor is dead.
Is this method ok to use for testing a 2 speed motor as well?
This would still apply to the testing of the running windings. You just cant test between two sets.
Subtitles would sound better.
