    Rewiring 120/240V motor to reverse rotation

    It works! I swapped the copper start winding wires and it reversed rotation. I extended the wires and added spade connectors in case I ever want to change rotation again. Thanks to all who contributed, Bill, Muthu and Compositepro. And to jraef, Mr. "..statement on the label...not...

    Rewiring 120/240V motor to reverse rotation

    Do you think they're both run windings? If they are maybe I should swap them both?

    Rewiring 120/240V motor to reverse rotation

    Brown goes to the run capacitor. Red goes to the board, where it splits out to the orange wire and the thermal shutoff switch.

    Rewiring 120/240V motor to reverse rotation

    Edison123, I thought about rotating the stator. There is a gap through which I can extend and feed the wires. But as Waross guessed, the stator is in fact closer to one end and the windings aren't centered in the housing. I've narrowed it down to 3 wires, black red and brown. I did some...

    Rewiring 120/240V motor to reverse rotation

    There are 7 wires coming out of the windings, indicated with red arrows in the attached pic. I assume the black wire on the right is one of the start winding wires. I need to swap that with the other start winding wire, correct? Could someone please let me know what other wire?

    Basic BMS questions

    I've gone through 3 Lithium Ion motorcycle batteries in the last 2 years. I opened one up to see what's inside it and determine if something can be done to improve their reliability. Looking at the BMS, I can tell it has the ability to balance the cells by discharging stronger cells until they...
