VEVOR OEM Upgraded Condenser Fan Motor, 1/4 HP 1100RPM, Replacement for ac GE Genteq Carrier Bryant Payne Dayton, 5KCP39EGS070S, 5KCP39EGY823S, 3905, HC39GE237, 6DLL0, Reversible Rotating + Capacitor

I couldn’t be happier with the VEVOR OEM Upgraded Condenser Fan Motor (1/5HP, 825RPM)! The quality is great, especially when you consider the ultra-low price compared to other OEM replacement options. Installation was a breeze—thanks to the clear wiring diagrams on the motor, I was able to complete the DIY in under an hour. This was my first time fixing/replacing a Carrier condenser fan motor, and I was surprised at how easy the task turned out to be. After installation, my condenser is running like new—quieter, more efficient, and working perfectly. The service contractor had quoted me $650 for the part and labor, but I did the entire DIY project for under $65. This motor is an absolute money-saver, and I couldn’t be more thrilled with the results. I highly recommend this product to anyone looking to replace their condenser fan motor without breaking the bank. A very happy customer here!

I ordered this motor as a condenser fan motor replacement for a Trane TWR024 outdoor heat pump. I did have to drill four new holes in the top of the condensing unit to match the mounting studs on the new motor. Just marked a "cross" with a straight edge through the factory drilled bolt-stud holes to locate the "X" (exact center on the top) and struck a circle using a compass with a Sharpie marker for the correct diameter of the Vevor motor mounting studs (about 5 3/16" as I recall), set the motor on and marked the stud locations for drilling the matching new holes. The motor came defaulted to counterclockwise (CCW) rotation (which is what the Trane unit utilizes) but has a plug-pigtail for simple conversion to clockwise (CW) rotation if needed (rotation direction determined by looking down at the fan / motor from the top of the unit). The motor shipped with a 7.5 microfarad capacitor. Very important (CRITICAL) that you use the correct matching capacitor. The OEM capacitor on my unit was a dual run-start capacitor with the "Fan" terminal being rated at 5 microfarads. I simply mounted the new 7.5 microfarad capacitor, ran a "jumper wire" from the "common" terminal on the dual run-start capacitor to one of the two terminals on the new two-terminal capacitor supplied, then connected the brown "fan" wire from the new motor to the other terminal of the two-terminal capacitor. This way I didn't have to purchase a more expensive dual run start capacitor to power the compressor and condenser fan at the correct capacitance ratings. This works fine. Bottom line, make sure the motor matches your factory rated hp and RPM and make sure the new motor is wired correctly to the correct capacitor / capacitance. If not, it will burn out the motor or won't even start. Brown wire goes to the "Fan" terminal of the capacitor, black wire to either the start contactor or board mounted start relay (depending on your unit type), green wire grounds to the unit chassis and remaining wire goes to the "common" terminal (or common jumper point if you wire in the new capacitor as indicated above). This motor is made for a constant RPM speed motor. It will not work with a unit requiring a variable speed motor. Wired correctly it runs quietly, performs well, and cost about 1/4 of what an OEM motor will cost you. Key to it all is correct wiring with the capacitance required by the motor. One final tip, make sure any wiring from the motor is tied off with teflon ties, or secured in a conduit or raceway, so that it cannot droop or get pulled into the condenser fan when operating. Installed correctly, it works great. Mine has been cooling well after several days of temps in high 90s to 100 degrees.

This part was an exact fit. Was straightforward to install. Wires were plenty long. It has been installed for 3 weeks and the AC is working great.

For the money this motor can’t be beat. I replace an Emerson condenser fan motor that was two speed but the second speed was not being utilized on my system so a generic 220v, 1/6hp of same dimensional size is all I needed. Bolt hole pattern matched my OEM just fine to the condenser top grate and existing blade fit just fine. Wiring gage from the new motor is smaller than wire gage of OEM motor. I also squirted RTV around the outlet areas of the motor wires to better seal them from water. Plugged in the wires to appropriate spots on the contactor and capacitor and fired it up. Was going the wrong direction at first but the new motor is easily reversed as needed. If longevity is good I’ll be very pleased with this motor for fit, form and function seem excellent.

Took a little bit of modifying on the shaft but it works great and moves more air than the original one did so I assume it keeps the unit cooler

Exact fit for Emerson K55HXLTD-0249. Old HVAC Condenser fan started making a lot of noise, vibration, and then got stuck. Ended blowing up the original capacitor that was installed in the unit. Turns out, the Emerson HVAC Condenser fans had some sort of sleeve bearings, and that they require regular lubrication. I did not know any of that as a new homeowner then, I had it running all 17 years until it finally gave out from bearing wear. I saw this VEVOR replacement fan, made in china, and I guess this seller ships from china as well. Almost exact fit for the old broken unit. Shipping takes a lot of time, and we had to open the windows while we wait for the replacement fan to arrive. Took 8 days from order to delivery (and this was 4 days early then predicted delivery date). Something you have to consider when buying. Bought it mainly for the price and the good reviews. I thought I have to share my experience with it as well. The measurements and specs posted on the product page helped a lot. The mounting holes from the old unit matches this one perfectly, so it was a drop in replacement. Same HP rating. Rotation speed is actually faster vs the old unit, which is I guess a plus. The capacitor rating for the new VEVOR fan was only 5uF vs the Emerson which was 10uF. That means I can keep using the capacitor that I already have and keep the one that shipped with the vevor fan as a spare. You can always use a higher value capacitor on these AC fans, but not a smaller value. The wire colors are also different, but there is a wiring diagram on the fan label, as well as a diagram on how to program the rotation direction. The vevor fan came in CCW direction as default, same as the old unit so it did not have to change anything. The only gripe i have about this fan is than the end connectors are right angled. The old unit have straight connectors, and the contactor install has a nice weather resistant corrugated tube that protects the wires from the elements. Because of the right angle connectors, I cannot fit it inside this sleeve, so I had to use an electrical tape to wrap the wires. I could have probably done a better job by crimping a straight connector on there to replace the right angled ones, but it was late in the day and I needed this job finished. I might have to redo this when I come back in a few months to relubricate the bearings (as a preventive maintenance). I also added a few zip ties to hold the tape wrap together to prevent them from unravelling when the adhesive loses its tackiness. Overall, a great cheap replacement for an older model fan. The removal of the fan blade was actually more of a challenge and was probably half of the work. Mine has been in use for 17 years and thus was stuck pretty good. Took some WD-40 and some wrangling and grinding on the old shaft until I got it out. But I finally did it and was able to re-use the old fan blade. Now we have cold air again. [update 06/2025] about 10 months in, weather is getting warm again. I started noticing this fan keeps shutting off in the middle of a long (~1 hr) cooling cycle. the mounting area of the fan feels too hot to the touch, so I can only guess this fan keeps triggering the thermal protection, and shuts itself off. change the run capacitor to match the 5uF that is listed in the spec sheet, still the same result. This fan can not seem to sustain prolonged runtime of 30min to 1hr or longer. I can start to hear the compressor squeal every time this happen. Will probably look for an OEM brand for the original one that I had replaced with this. got this to quickly restore cold air, but will not recommend if you are able to buy the OEM brand one. Mine was originally an Emerson.

This was a perfect replacement for my fan motor. Everything was exactly as the specs stated. I didn't use the capacitor as the one I had in the condenser was fairly new but will be good to keep on hand as a backup. Seemed smooth and quiet when testing. I just hope it lasts. Can't really complain at this price though.

EDIT: One month after writing this review, Vevor is no longer selling this version of the motor on Amazon or their website. ————— Purchased this 1/4 HP, 1.4A, 220V blower motor for my outdoor AC condenser. It is quiet and seems to work well. I’m not sure if it’s running at its stated 1100 RPM but my AC is running very cold at spec. It replaced a very good GE rated at 2A 840 RPM, so it makes me wonder how it can use significantly less power but spin a lot faster. The GE however was heavier and actually lasted 25 years. Unlike the other Vevor models on Amazon, this one came with two 1/4” holes a few inches from the shaft that will face the sky. They look like an engineering after-thought. You can barely see them in one of the 10 Amazon pictures. Heavy rain will no doubt go into the motor and likely damage it. I wrote Vevor and asked if I should plug the holes. Their response was, “Regarding your question, this hole was there when the motor was developed. It is used for drainage and is called a drip hole. If the installation direction is exposed to rain, please cover it”. Vevor is selling this as a “condenser fan motor”. There are of course very few AC condenser units installed in a different orientation than “up”. I suggested that they include plugs for the holes. They wrote back again with several more paragraphs and said, “If you are not satisfied with our product, we suggest you return it and get a refund”. I’d easily give it 5 stars if I felt confident it would last even half as long as the old one. Having such a glaring engineering design flaw which I’m expected to correct, loses it a couple of stars. The “good luck my friend” attitude loses it another star. Loses one more star after seeing that in most other reviews for this motor that it overheats and shuts off. If this happens even once it could damage the compressor.
