Hi Earl, Most older DC blower motors were built with series connected armature & field windings. They will rotate in the same direction regardless of which way the power is connected. These motors "c

Hi Bob, Better check out the theory & trace out the paths first. The full wave bridge is a common way to make a DC device non polarity sensitive. Steering diodes would be another description. Dave Ru

Hi Bob, The comment was a bit "tongue in cheek". It depends on the "starting condition " of the parts. If they are presently good, it means that the leakage rate & the wear rates are not likely to be

Hi Alan, I would certainly prefer a starter with separate terminals. I'll bet you can find one. APT in the US can certainly supply it. I hope you can find something closer. Regards, Dave Russell
