Carrier Weathermaker 9200 Model # 58MXA060-12112 I think I have a bad Blower Motor, however, before I spend money we don't have I thought I'd ask you folks. Blower motor would come on about 50% of the time. If I manually spun the cage with a thin piece of dowel rod it would usually start (I know, not smart). When the motor wouldn't start I could hear a hum and feel the hum at the wiring harness at the back of the motor. I would have the same problem whether I tried to run the AC, Heat or on RUN. I replaced the capacitor ( with an exact replacement) and everything worked fine for a couple of weeks and now it is back to only starting without me spinning the cage 10-20% of the time. Now there is also a squeak when the blower runs. I tested the capacitor with a Digital Multi Meter on the ohms setting (2000k setting) as I saw on Repairclinic.com. When I applied one probe to each of the terminals the meter would quickly switch from one reading to another ( anything from 1876 to 800 to a few other numbers ) in a matter of seconds and then read a steady 0. I tested for a short in the capacitor and it checked out fine, no reading on the ohms setting when touching one probe to a terminal and the other to the body of the cap. I don't have a meter that will check for Micro Farads. Questions: 1.How can I confirm that it is the motor? 2.Why does the blower start when I manually spin it? 3.Could pulling the motor and then cleaning and lubing it help? 4.Did I test the Capacitor correctly and did the test indicate it was working? 5.If motor is bad is there anything else I can do to it short of rebuilding that will allow it to work until I get a new motor?

Hi, Hope you can help me to look at the right direction... Have Goodman furnace for 5 years, it's GMVM96, was running no problem all the time. Recently it started failing to start up heat. When it happens I find the furnace with solid "H" in the diagnostic window and no flames. Usually restart would solve the problem but it started getting worse: Lately when I restart the furnace with the switch, it attempts to start, the fan is on, ignitor starts, flames are on and visible, and then fan is slowing down and eventually the flames are shutting down. Furnace makes 3 attempts and then shuts down with the E0 code. I used Fault Recall button to clear up the history and after that the furnace started as normal. This happened more than twice now so there must be definitely a problem. What I am not getting is that if that would be a physical problem with something, the furnace would not start at all, but it is intermittent so I don't know where to start. I checked and cleaned the flame sensor, changed the filter and thermostat batteries, checked pipes. Please help. Thank you
