First, I did search the group and did not find the specific info I
need. I was given an older Maytag 1/3 hp 1725 rpm washing machine
motor and need help with the wiring to retask it for other use.
The wiring block on the end of the motor is set up with six connectors,
4 ganged with 1 internal and 1 external wire, 2 with single wires. It
looks as follows, (E) indicates external wire connected to house
current (115v) / maybe a capacitor? the other color is internal
wiring:
1 Blue / Red (E) 2 Green (E)
3 Black 4 Yellow / White (E)
5 Red / Yellow (E) 6 Orange / Black (E)
2 is connected to 3 via the centrifugal switch, I disassembled it to
verify. Obviously the start winding. This shows a resistance of .4,
probably need to clean my meters connections. Other values follow.
1 - 4 2 ohms
1 - 6 2 ohms
2 - 3 .4 ohm
3 - 5 3.6 ohms
4 - 6 .4 ohm
Any assistance in wiring / testing this would be appreciated. TIA
