Hello,
I have an AC 3 speed fan motor. The only thing written on the motor is "230V 50Hz 38W". It has six wires; black, yellow, brown, red, blue and white.
I spent a couple of ours trying to get this motor to work but can't seem to manage. The main problem I have is that I do not know what the wires represent.
I am quite positive that the yellow and black wire should be connected to the capacitor as the old capacitor that came with this motor has these two wire colors attached to it. For the rest I do not know.
At first I thought that the brown should be connected to the Live and the blue, red and white used to determine the speed. However when doing this nothing happens. If therefore experimented a little and connected the blue with neutral and red with live. The motor makes a strange loud noise but does not turn and I cannot turn it by hand (hard).
Does anyone know how the motor should be connected?
Note: I bought new capacitors so the capacitors should not be the problem.
