Carrier 38TPA060 Cooling Fan Motor
The fan motor on the compressor is responsible for keeping the compressor cool, when heat is removed from the house, that heat energy has to be driven away. It is important that you get the exact voltage and correct amp current as it is on the bad motor. The motor can be replaced solely on its own, this will make it a lot easier to install and it is something you can do yourself.
