In this video, I replace a Trane XL13 condenser fan motor with a universal motor. Specifically, I replace the OEM GE Genteq 5KCP39MFAC15AS 3-wire motor with a Dayton 4M226 universal 4-wire motor.

I'll take you through the procedure step-by-step. You'll see how easy it is.

Tools and materials you'll need (in addition to the motor):
Socket set to remove condenser screws (all one size)
Claw hammer
Crescent wrench
Wire cutters/strippers
Spade connectors (Yellow) and crimper
UV-resistant zip ties
Short piece of 3/4" PVC pipe (recommended)
Digital multimeter (needed to diagnose, not to replace)
