Hard to believe no one has responded to your question. Any electric distributor should have a motor that will replace yours. In my area we have a place called Universal Electric. You need to look for a frame number on the specs label. It will start with FR. That will ensure you get the correct physical size of the motor itself. I have always found it best to take the original motor along to match up with the replacement. Make sure you don't go any lower than the amp rating that is on the original motor. Also make sure the rotation is the same, i.e. cwle (clockwise lead end) or ccwle (counterclockwise lead end). Some universal replacement motors allow for reversible rotation but my experience is that these motors have a shorter life. A longer shaft is not a problem if you have to settle for one of those. Simply use a hacksaw to cut the excess shaft, if necessary, and file away any burrs to allow the blower wheel to slide over the shaft end.

Do you have heat only or heat and a/c ?

I had knee surgery Tuesday and have been away from office since.

Thanks,

Actually, you should be able to order a replacement motor here. Robert can give you the link.

Hey,

I took it apart and greased it up with some old grease i had laying around and the noise went away for about half the day and came back any suggestions?

Answering my question would help. Then I can give ordering info if needed.

Thanks,
Robert

Hey Robert,

Heat only.

Hi,

Blower Motor # 902512

Run Capacitor # 622535

Both can be seen and ordered here by paging down :

http://www.aberdeenhomerepair.com/store ... 2512-motor

Then type run cap p/n into search window and add to cart/basket.

Due to cost of replacement motor, you can call Mark @ 605-229-2627 on Monday and see if he has one compatible for a lesser amount.

May or may not, but worth a try. He will need motor diameter and length, shaft diam. and length, motor rpm and hp.

Thanks,
Robert
