Overview
This OEM 1/4 HP condenser fan motor (part 1186966) drives the outdoor fan on the ICP / Tempstar / Heil WCA5604GKA100 condensing unit. The condenser fan pulls air across the outdoor coil to reject heat absorbed from inside the home — without it, head pressure climbs fast and the compressor trips on its overload or fails outright. This 1/4 HP motor is a high-duty component that runs every minute the system is cooling, and bearings, windings, and the start capacitor all wear over time. Symptoms of a failing fan motor include a fan that won't spin, a motor that hums but doesn't start, a unit that runs hot and short-cycles on high pressure, or grinding and squealing from worn bearings.

Compatibility
Direct OEM replacement for the ICP / Tempstar / Heil WCA5604GKA100 condensing unit. Matched to the factory 1/4 HP condenser fan specification for this model. Confirm motor voltage, RPM, rotation direction, and shaft size against your existing motor, and reuse or replace the matching run capacitor as needed.
Installation Guide
- Safety First — Disconnect power at the disconnect and verify zero voltage with a multimeter; the run capacitor can hold a charge, so discharge it before handling.
- Access — Remove the top grille/fan assembly and the control panel to reach the motor and wiring.
- Document — Photograph the motor wiring, capacitor connections, and fan blade position/depth on the shaft.
- Remove — Loosen the blade set screw and pull the blade, then unbolt the old motor from its bracket and disconnect the leads.
- Install — Mount the new motor, transfer the fan blade to the same depth and orientation, and reconnect the leads and capacitor per your photo.
- Test — Restore power, confirm the fan spins in the correct direction and pulls air up through the coil, and check that head pressure stays in range.
Signs You Need a Replacement
- Condenser fan won't spin or only spins with a manual push
- Motor hums but the blade doesn't turn
- Unit overheats, runs hot, or trips on high head pressure
