What It Means
Motor Overheating
Likely Causes
- Insufficient ventilation around motor
- Direct sun exposure on motor housing
- Worn bearings generating excess heat
- Motor amps above nameplate FLA
Next Checks
- Ensure motor has adequate airflow — do not enclose without ventilation
- Shield motor from direct sun if possible
- Check motor amp draw with clamp meter — compare to nameplate FLA
- If amps are normal and motor still overheats: bearings likely worn
