Motor Assembly
The motor is a 240 VAC motor and utilizes a
start capacitor and internal automatic reset
overload. Both clockwise (CW) and counter-
clockwise (CCW) windings resistance values are
approximately 25.2Ω.
The motor resistance can be checked from the
main board K5 relay
orange
wire, to the CN4
connector
black
wire and
red
wire.
Operation of the motor can be checked by
using the Service Mode test t05 (see
Service
Mode Test
in the
Diagnostics and Service
Information
section of this service guide).
Motor Assembly Removal
1. Remove control panel, control panel
mounting bracket, top cover, front panel, front
drum support and drum (see
Control Panel
and Front RJ45 Access
,
Top Cover
, and
Front Panel
sections of this service guide).
2. Disconnect the wire harness connector from
motor.
3. Remove one Phillips-head screw securing the
blower wheel cover to the blower housing.
4. While holding the motor shaft by the pulleys
stationary with pliers, use a 10-mm socket
to loosen the nut securing the blower to the
motor shaft.
Caution
: There is a start capacitor mounted to
the side of the drive motor on a bracket. This will
need to be transferred to the new motor. Ensure
to discharge the capacitor before removing the
motor.
