I have a new Dayton 1/2 hp instant reverse electric motor with 6 leads; red,white,black,orange,blue,& yellow. Out of my reversible switch I have 5 leads; red,black,orange,white, and a green ground. I cannot get the motor to run both ways. I can get it to go cw or ccw but it will not reverse by using the switch. I need help.
