Is $2,000 to replace an ECM indoor motor a fair price?
Project Details
I am trying to help someone who cannot afford the $2000 replacement charge quoted for an ECM indoor motor. I feel confident in performing the replacement myself but am having difficulty finding the correct Evergreen ECM 1/2 HP motor. After replacing a motor, I observed LED flash patterns and was looking for a troubleshooting chart, which I later found.
