Trying to wire a washer motor to house current


Recommended Posts

Posted

I am trying to wire a used washer motor directly to house current. The one I have is exactly the same as this one, http://appliantology.org/topic/32199-adapting-a-kenmore-80-series-3-speed-washer-motor-to-general-use/?_fromLogin=1 .  I only need it to work on one speed as I am going to use it to run a rock crusher. I know the motor is good as I saw it running the day I removed it. (2 weeks ago) The plug I have has one each of black, white and green wires. What I would like to know is which color wire goes to which color wire. I can wire a house but this stuff eludes me for some reason.

I figured it out. At least the motor turns anyway. I will post my wiring colors for anybody who needs it.

House Black to Grey, Yellow and Blue

House White to Red and White with a violet trace

House Green to Green with yellow trace

Please note that this is hooked up to the wires using the connector. If you don't have the connector it would be different.

This worked for me. Use this information at your own risk as your setup may be different.
