Motor look like this 1/3-HP on Amazon?

It's Double-Ended, Two-Speed, price is right.
Here's its Link
If all you need is the Windings part, I can send them to you. Our motor developed bearing problems and I couldn't keep them from coming back. Ordered a new motor, old is in my garage.
They're a little hard to order because the FASCO model (D1092 in this case) is different than what appeared on the original motor.

It can be the fan--- had to replace mine earlier in July--- $289 installed-- $160 for the fan motor

A different issue on same system. Mine if functioning correctly except I'm tripping a 30 amp breaker after running for a while on warm days. After reset I still trip even with just fan running. I also am noticing that the power meter is spinning pretty fast. I do notice on the motor it does say " 3.1 A " and I'm believing that is stating that this motor is using 3.1 amp while running. I'm thinking that there may be some maintenance that I can try and do to reduce the load. I did notice the oil applicators (like those in my hot water head motors) and will lubricate them on a regular basis now. I have pulled the motor and am going to run amp usage bench tests. Just looking for any advice or information I can get.

Tried to find your model on http://www.rvcomfort.com/rvp/tech_info/parts_doc.php and there was no "6000 Series" Do you have a Parts List? If so, the values of the Capacitors might be listed on it.

My guess is 7.5-MFD at 370-VAC, from other units on the RVP page. But better to look at the one on the unit. Shoot, you've got it all apart.

Some "Multi-Meters" (Digital Volt-Ohm Meters or DVOM) will test capacitors, and some of those aren't all that expensive. If you have power to the motor, and you could spin the motor over and see it carry on for awhile, I'm thinking capacitor. You don't need a "Coleman" capacitor, only one that has the same capacitance and voltage specs s the one in your A/C. Can you find an appliance parts store? My guess is the cap would cost $10 or so.

And thank you J-D and is there ant thing else I can try to make sure it is not! the motor?

Ok good Question I guess it was working when I went to bed last night and @ 4:30 this morning I was awakened by the sound of silence the fans are not turning I took the whole unit apart and yes the only thing I can find not working is the motor!
I've tried restarting it will I was up on top and someone else running the controls it ran for maybe 3 (three) minutes and quit spinning again !So I unplugged it and pulled the motor

Do you know for sure it's the Motor and not the Fan Capacitor? Or some other part, for that matter? Our resident expert Chris Bryant says he has replaced nearly zero motors but many capacitors.

PPL Motorhomes is a good place to start.

I got mine from Dick Gore's RV World, paid a few more dollars but it was hot and he had it on the shelf ready to go.
