Ohming out an X-13. Hard part was getting to it.

I'm gonna have to do some landscaping to work on this thing. First I gotta try to get inside. Oh I don't know. And my blower ain't working. I gotta figure out why it ain't coming on. I don't hear it. I gotta get back there to get to it though. I hope there ain't no snakes back here. I'm worried about snakes right now. I'm worried about thorns. We got an X-13 blower motor and it is not running. These are still hot. It's got power to it. You gotta check and make sure you're still getting 240 volts i'm checking on black and yellow 240 volts so now we got to confirm that we got 24 volts between one of these in common and common is all the way over here that's 30 volts so that motor should be turning next we're going to ohm out the motor and see if this module is bad i want to pull these out i'm going to disconnect the module next we're going to ohm out these windings basically this is a three-phase dc motor so all these windings should come out the same but first we're gonna ohm each winding to ground and when i check ground i check to the big x underneath catch this so i can show you i'm doing the red wire to ground blue wire to ground now we're doing black wire to ground y'all see what i'm doing here nothing okay so we're gonna own here to here here to here and then here to here all three possibilities on a three-phase motor first one about six point five six and that one also about six point five six and the last one last option that one six point six zero six point five nine it ain't perfect but I think it'll work so we're going to get a new module for this first I'm gonna put it all back together we're back with a module so that module costs just about as much as a replacement motor of course not the oem motor one of those green ones a little bit careful power is still on so i'm hoping the power on when you plug it up it gives a little spark but multiple times before in fact that's the first time i've owned out one of these ECM motors with that meter and that was a really stable reading if i do that with my fluke the reading is all over the map and you gotta guess for the halfway point like that was like 6.6 if that had been a fluke that would have been anywhere from like 5.6 to 7 varying in between and you gotta guess which ones you just gotta shoot for the middle and hope that all your middles are the same all right we got the power hooked up here comes the moment of truth we're about to put 24 volts to it
