wire diagram for a leeson-taylor mtr.
(OP)
The mtr plate says "connect for wiring diagram supplied with motor". I dont have this. Can anyone help me? model A4S17DR46B OR A4S1-DR46B. Orange wire marked RB, White marked R21, Black w/White stripe no marking, Green w/Yellow stripe marked R14. Its single phase.
tks, paul

Green with yellow stripe is often ground. Check for continuity from this lead to the motor frame and NO continuity to the other two leads.
More information would be helpful.
Pictures?
Nameplate data?

* after the four is either a space slash OR a 7, as 4 /066 27 OR 47066 27
Not sure about the 27 at the end. I can barely read it. Also, maybe the space before the 27 is really a letter or number, I dont think so, but not sure.

Indications;
Google doesn't find Leeson-Taylor. May be OEM motor built to OEM specs by Leeson.
Very small drive pulley, Common on driers.
No JB or peckerhead, and OEM connector on the ends of the wires.
Green/yellow is often ground. That leaves three wires. not common for many single phase motors of that physical size.
Did you check for ground continuity yet?
What voltage is shown on the nameplate?

The other diagram that was shown in your last post does not correspond with the orange, white, and black leads. They only correspond with other connections that are on the terminal board of the motor that are on your next to last post. It is basically telling you to interchange positions of lead #5 and lead #8 on the terminal board to change the rotation of the motor.

The white lead terminates on the right. The board reads "LINE". One of your LINE's goes here. The orange lead terminates on the left. The board reads "LINE". The other LINE goes here.

Something is stuck in the centrifugal mechanism, might need some lubrication. You should be able to get it loosened up so that as soon as you release the weights, the plastic ring snaps back toward the bearing on the shaft. Pushing on the ring (away from the bearing)should also make the weights move outward, but it can be a pretty stiff push to get them to move, so start them moving with your fingers while putting pressure with your thumbs.

What ccjersey says. This is a common mechanism, ccjersey is not guessing. From his instructions he has probably repaired several identical switches and a lot more very similar switches.

PS: I have another mtr that I cant figure out, I'll start a new thread.
