Want this question answered?
It could do so. If the circuit was correctly wired it should have blown the fuse or tripped the circuit breaker before the motor burnt out so get this checked before you replace the motor. A three phase motor will overheat and eventually burn out if all three phases are not connected and giving the same voltage. If the motor is expensive then buy and install a special switch which will cut the supply to the motor if the phases are not properly in balance. this will usually cost about 1/10 of the motor price, a good return on investment.
Poor Airflow due to a dirty filter,dirty evaporator,dirty blower wheel, bad or weak run capacitor, or even a bad bearing in the fan motor causing it to overheat and shut off on overload while the compressor still runs, thus causing the unit to freeze up. On some systems it is possible that when the thermostat is satisfied and the indoor blower motor shuts off, the compressor could keep running if the contactor is sticking for 1 reason or another. Examples of this would be fireants or ladybugs in contactor or just an old contactor that has burnt points that stick some or all the time after running and getting hot. -Brad75-
Possibly loose belt or bad bearing(s). Check tension first.
No. If the motor runs backwards, swap any two phases to reverse the rotation, like this: Old wiring: phase A - brown wire - motor lead T1 phase B - yellow wire - motor lead T2 phase C - orange wire - motor lead T3 New wiring: phase A - brown wire - motor lead T2 phase B - yellow wire - motor lead T1 phase C - orange wire - motor lead T3
The ball bearings in the motor probably need to be changed. If the motor does not have ball bearings then the bushings have worn out and the motor armature is dragging on the stator. Don't run this motor until the bearing have been repaired as excessive wear on the stator from armature rubbing will introduce metal filings into the stator windings which could short out and destroy the motor. If it's the normal operating noise that you're asking about, a three phase motor has a smoothly spinning magnetic field driving it's rotor that has almost no uneven motion, and produces almost no vibration in the iron parts of the machine. A single phase motor runs with a pulsating field that swaps polarity twice per cycle, but DOESN'T actually rotate. This causes the iron in the motor to vibrate slightly whenever the AC is applied, and this vibration causes the noisier operation of a single phase motor compared to a three phase motor. Single phase motor running noise can be reduced if the start winding li left partly energised during normal running. For instance, some room air conditioners leave a small capacitor connecting the starting winding so it delivers partial power during running to give a 'sort-of' rotating field in the single phase compressor motor, which helps to reduce the 'pulsating' component and enhance it with a 'rotating' field that quietens the compressor down while you're trying to sleep.....
Your motor oil going bad would cause that. That is in the crankcase, not the transmission.
What can happen when a blower motor resistor goes bad is that the motor will run and then suddenly stop running on a regular basis. Sometimes the blower fan will not turn on and cause the motor to overheat.
A bad thermostat can cause an overheat. A bad temp sensor can show an overheat when the temperature is normal.
The following can cause this problem.................. 1. Bad blower motor. 2. Bad blower motor wheel. 3. Trash in the blower housing...
Blown fuse, bad fan motor, or defective Thermal Relay.
a bad bearing will cause it to shake, also a rotar or shocks will do the same.
Blown fuse, bad fan motor, or defective Thermal Relay.
Bad temp sensor, bad fan relay, blown fuse, bad fan motor, low coolant, clogged radiator, loose fan belt, the list goes on.
Is it overheating. Cheapest is a bad waterpump. Or worse, headgasket blown, or bad motor. Bad crankpulley could cause not to start, but would not cause overheating unless belt came off.
Bad thermostat, cap and radiator is a common cause.
Only three things that I can think of. Either the axle nut is too tight, bad bearing/lack of grease, or the brake is dragging.
A bad water pump or thermostat can cause an engine to overheat. A plugged (clogged) radiator or heater core may also cause an engine to overheat.
