Carrier 38BYC048 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor on the compressor is in charge of keeping the compressor cool, when heat is removed from the house, that heat energy has to be discharged into the air outside. The motor on the compressor fan can be replaced as a whole unit with the blade or by itself, which this may make it a lot easier and make it a probable DIY project. Be sure you get the similar voltage and the correct amp listing as it is on the bad motor.
Major clues of a faulty compressor fan motor
- The motor starts to smoke or shorts out when in use
- The Carrier motor cannot turn at all
- You hear a grinding sound as the motor is stopping
