Overview
This is the OEM 1/4 HP condenser fan motor (part number 1177473) for the Tempstar T4A460GKD300 air conditioning condenser. The condenser fan motor drives the outdoor fan blade that pulls air across the condenser coil, rejecting the heat your system removes from the home. Rated at 1/4 HP and 208/230V, it is engineered to match the original factory motor's torque, rotation, and mounting. When this motor fails, the compressor keeps running while the outdoor fan stops, causing high head pressure, tripped breakers, warm air at the registers, and eventual compressor damage. A motor that hums but won't start, runs hot, or makes loud bearing noise is on its way out.

Compatibility
Direct OEM fit for the Tempstar T4A460GKD300 condensing unit. The same chassis is shared across the ICP, Heil, and Comfortmaker families, so this motor also services equivalent rebadged units. Always confirm your existing motor's HP, voltage, and rotation against the unit data plate before installing.
Installation Guide
- Safety First — Disconnect power at the outdoor disconnect and verify zero voltage with a multimeter before touching any wiring.
- Access — Remove the top grille/fan deck screws and lift the fan assembly out of the condenser cabinet.
- Document — Photograph all motor and capacitor wire connections before disconnecting anything.
- Remove — Loosen the fan blade set screw, pull the blade, then unbolt the old motor from the deck and disconnect its leads.
- Install — Mount the new motor, reinstall the blade at the same depth, and reconnect leads per your photo, matching the run capacitor wiring.
- Test — Restore power, confirm correct rotation (air blowing up/out), and verify amp draw is within nameplate range.
Signs You Need a Replacement
- Outdoor fan won't spin while the compressor runs
