Can you adjust the thermostat on the 63 or is it pre-set?
Thanks, Wayland

Yes, Providing it's still in working order, or some yahoo didn't just tape the wires together....

Thanks for all your help JohnieG. Is the thermostat located on top front side of the coils on the inside? How do you adjust it? I know I'm a lot of trouble but this is my first machine and I don't know anything about them. I know a little about reading electrical schematics but thats it.
Thanks In advance, Wayland

I think I'm going to pull the cooling unit, clean out the bottoms, clean and repaint. The outside coils are dirty up inside not on the surface. So a good cleaning is in order. I was going to attach a photo but I'm not smart enough.
Thanks, Wayland

So, which way is colder - clockwise or counter-clockwise?

It will depend on the themostat , but typically clockwise is colder, as are the higher the numbers (if any are marked on the face/knob of the control). one way will turn off the compressor, & the opposite way will be the coldest setting...
enjoy!
enjoy!

Just in case anyone is still reading this, The above motor is an exact replacement for a vendo 63 condensor fan motor. Mine is cooling great now. Also built a new fan shroud as the old one was pretty much gone.
Thanks for everyone's help, Wayland

Hello
No need to order these fan motors online. Just take the old motor to your local AC parts store. (McCalls, CC Dickson, Baker Brothers etc) they will have the fan motors for about $ 19.
