Evergreen CECOMINOD073162 GE • Genteq 1/3 HP 230 Volt Replacement X-13 Furnace Blower Motor

I'm so thankful for this thing. 2 months ago I came home to a hot upstairs (dedicated system for upstairs), temperature way above the thermostat set point. Inside the air handler closet I discovered the lines iced up and the fan doing absolutely nothing. Less than two years earlier the original motor (5 years old) had stopped moving enough air, causing icing up, and was noisy. Technician diagnosed bad motor and replaced it, but kept the same ECM module. Anyway, no warranty to soften the blow this time around so I decided to diagnose it myself. 230v at fan, 24vac signal at fan, no dead shorts, equal resistance across motor windings, but no spin. No hum. Nothing. Took it all out and apart and the thermistor in ECM module was good, but noticed spinning the fan with ECM module connected wasn't freely rotating. I could easily move it, but it wouldn't continue to spin around like videos I watched. So that left me trying to find a replacement ECM module, even used - impossible. Motor + ECM programmed, north of $1k. After many hours of researching obscure part numbers and not wanting to spend that kind of money, I bought an inverter window AC and suffered for 60 days with a partially cooled master bedroom, a sweltering master bath and walk-in closet, and a battle against humidity. Found this motor mentioned two days ago and couldn't even begin to confirm that it'd replace my Broad-Ocean unit. Had no idea if it'd be too short, long, too wide or narrow for the mounting band around my existing motor, incompatile shaft diameter - nothing. That's because of poorly published specs on the one I removed. All I knew is that it matched in 1/3hp, 230v, and RPM so I went for it and I'm so thankful. Wish I had ordered this the day I did my diagnostics and spared myself the window ac (same price as this) and associated drama. Had it installed in an hour with zero complications and it's working PERFECT. I don't know if my hvac company could have sourced a replacement ECM module, I sure couldn't find one searching every parts catalog around, but if they had sold me a complete assembly I would have been in the hole nearly $1.5k. Huge savings going this route and a great learning experience. This hvac company sold me an entire new downstairs unit a few years ago because the blower on that one died and they said it simply couldn't be sourced... I'll try a generic even if I have to retrofit things next time versus getting sold a whole new system.

avoid the ripoff of an HVAC company. this went into a carrier as a drop in replacement. perfect fit with no drilling or anything... literallly plug and play. This is the second one I've had to purchase for the same air handler in the past 3 years so the quality and longevity is definitely good enough for me at this point, as I'd rather buy 3 of these than have 1 visit from the HVAC guys that would have charged me 800-900 bucks for a single unit. I'll probably buy a spare for the future just in case. plug and play with the furnace, quiet and powerful. The motor has 5 speed settings, I've put white on 4 and blue on 3.

Works great...easy to hook up to my original wiring.

SAVE MONEY by replacing your own blower motor. It is so easy!!! We have a rental property in Texas and the air went out in July so had to repair it fast. The A/C company wanted to charge me $800+ so I did my own research and came across this motor. Got it in two days and changed it out in less than 2 hours(it was hot so had to take some breaks). Solid motor at at great price and fit like a charm! Grateful and thankful that I came across this motor. Money is tight so everything helps!

I installed this motor a year ago and still working with no problem, very satisfied.

Direct drop in, install of the motor in a Payne unit. Self programming. Recommend this motor, easy install. Delivered early as well. Couldn’t be happier.

The blower motor that we have fitted for our AC unit, was continuously running, not shutting off after the AC itself had stopped. Called in for a service, was quoted $1800 for a replacement. After Googling the original motor, this came up as an alternative. It comes with pages of instructions to cover all the types of motor that it can replace along with a wiring chassis if required. It was a simple process to change the motor out, just need some sockets and patients. It really was plug and play. Very happy with it.

OK, so I reviewed this package the day I received it and didn’t give it a great review because of the model difference. However, we have since looked it up and it is compatible with exactly what we ordered. We were able to put this into the AC unit and it’s running beautiful

Exactly like it’s described

The factory plugs were the same so no need to use the supplied wiring harness.
