FE6001F – CONDENSER MOTOR (1/3-1/6 HP, 2-SPD, 825 RPM) (TRANE MOUNT)
2-speed condenser motors run low-speed on stage 1 cooling and high-speed on stage 2 — they need a properly-sized 2-speed cap and a board that supports both speed taps. Confirm the existing setup is genuinely 2-speed before swapping in a 2-speed motor; a single-speed system won't use the low-speed tap. Bring the old motor + cap in; we'll match the right combo at the counter.

If your AC fan isn’t spinning or spins slowly, the condenser fan motor is likely the problem. This 2-speed motor covers 1/6 to 1/3 HP and runs at 825 RPM. It uses a Trane-style mounting pattern, so confirm your bracket setup before ordering.
Specs: 1/3-1/6 HP, 2-speed, 825 RPM, 208-230V, Trane mount configuration
Replaces: 5464, FE6001F

Why didn't my condenser fan motor last?
9 times out of 10, a weak run cap drives the motor to fail. The cap loses MFD over time, the motor pulls higher amps, the bearings overheat. Replace the cap every 5-7 years and the motor lasts much longer.
How do I match HP, RPM, and frame size?
HP and RPM come off the data plate. Frame size (42Y/48Y) describes the mount dimensions — 42Y is the smaller frame, 48Y is larger. Shaft diameter is usually 1/2" but verify. Rotation (CW/CCW from shaft end) MUST match your existing setup. Bring the old motor in — we'll match every dimension at the counter.
What does '2-speed' mean on a condenser motor?
2-speed condenser motors have two RPM ranges (typically 850 and 1075). The control board chooses based on stage call. Useful for 2-stage condensers — won't help on a single-stage system.
How long does a condenser fan motor last in Dallas?
6-10 years typical. Open-frame motors exposed to rain, sprinkler overspray, and afternoon sun fail faster. Sun-side units typically die first.
