How to connect a motor from a washing machine

Sep 04, 2004 0 Replies

When pensioning my old wash machine I took care of the motor, a Siemens 220V AC 18V5565-2BF 650/1300 turns/minute, and also of the startcapacitor 16uF.



When demounting the motor I did it the easy way, cutting the cable to the motor. My problem now is how to connect to capacitor and to switch for changing the turns of 650/1300. Even changing rotation direction by a switch.



The cable to the motor contains of five wires 1 blue and 4 black. A separate grounding wire is also there.



I have measured the Ohmvalues between the separate branches as you can se in the attached file.



Can you with guidance of the measuring give me a hint how to connect capasitor and switch and I wold be very grateful.
