Ruud UAND-060JAZ (7307) Condenser Fan & Capacitor Help
I am looking to get some guidance on what exactly needs to be done in order to properly replace the fan motor on my Ruud UAND-060JAZ (7307) Condenser. Specifically, which capacitors to buy and how to wire them up properly.
My confusion is that recommended Run Capacitor model appears to be a dual run, which I thought means that I don't need a Start Capacitor. Why would the official parts list recommend that I use both?
The current setup does not use a Dual Run or a Relay.
I have also attached reference photo of the current motor and the current capacitor setup.
Any guidance is appreciated!
Current Fan motor that needs replacement. The Ohms read properly but the bearings seem to be shot.
Current 2-capacitor setup.

You need two capacitors, one for the compressor and one for the condenser fan. It can either be two separate capacitors, or a dual capacitor (2 capacitors in one can). Depending upon what condenser fan motor you purchase, the fan capacitor may be a different value from the OEM capacitor value. Often, fan motor replacements are somewhat generic: match the case style, voltage, HP, and speed. I would suggest that you don't purchase the fan capacitor until you decide what motor you're going to purchase. There should be a sheet with the new motor that tells you what value capacitor and how to wire the motor (may be slightly different from the old one).
It looks like that condenser was modified for two capacitors.
I had a similar model. There was a big dual cap in that hole on the right.
Your current motor uses a 10uf at 370vac too.
Your "linked to" motor is a three wire unit and wires the same exact way as the old one.
Your "linked to" motor requires a 10uf at 370vac. capacitor (my choice)
I have the Trane xv95 furnace and had a tech come out and diagnose the problem as to why the there is water under my furnace. Well, it's the evaporator coil drain pan. Its rusted. My question is, can I replace just the drain pan or is it part of the whole evaporator coil system??? It's over $3,000.00 to replace the entire unit. Replacing the drain pan would be cheaper. HELP!!!!

Our ECM Blower stopped working a few weeks ago and a new system has been ordered through the home warranty company but it is backordered with no date. I think repairing the motor/module is my best option to give my family relieve from the 100+ degree days in the short term unless anyone has a better idea. I am trying to find a wiring diagram or procedures on how to test the individual components but I haven't had any luck. Can someone point me in the right direction?
