Howdy, Y'all.
The fan motor bearings are kaput on our bedroom air conditioner. Jack
wants to know how to replace that motor. It looks to be very difficult
because the drive shaft is so long. Is there a trick to replacing that
motor without disassembling the whole world? Ideas, suggestions
or comments would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Regards,

What make and model A/C is it?

Jack/Liz:
Assuming it is a roof top AC, replacing the fan motor is pretty straight
forward. With the cover off, and the circuit breaker off, note the wiring
numbers/color ( don't trust to memory) if not a plug in. The main thing is
getting the fan blade and squirrel cage back in the right configuration. If
the new motor is the right one but the shaft is too long, it is normal to
cut the shaft to proper length. Be sure to check the motor start capacitor
if reusing the old one, and of course check the start/run capacitor on the
compressor as well.
Safe travels,

Jack its a penguin model and I thought you could get the parts for it at
http://www.rvdealership.com but for some reason their site is not working
correctly. The parts should be available there however. Sorry to cause you
to give additional information.
