After I sent the post early this morning, I watched the video series on building the stirrer by hand and when it came to the part about the motor it was mentioned the blue wire was not used, and I remembered seeing my unit that it was the blue wire that was used and the red was cut down short.
So I thought I wonder if this is my problem, and went out and re do the wiring using the red and it came on. Then when I went back to using the blue it worked too, so I see now that the different color wire must be for polarity and just changes the direction that the motor spins,
Well, I thought ok it’s working fine. I then wired it back up with my quick disconnect tested it and it worked. I added the heat wrap around the cut wires and plugged it in and nothing. It stopped again! I don’t know why it’s stopping, or when it does, it won’t turn until I remove the wires and reverse the blue and red.
