Hello all, im very new here but im trying to put back together a tire machine. Essentially the motor went out and had it fixed but my coworker didn't first document the wiring before disconnecting. Go figure. The motor is a 1h.p. 1 phase ac 115/230 motor. The "j" box has four posts and three terminals on each post. I was told by the person who fixed the motor that he wired it for 115 with t2-8 on post 4 and t3-5 on post 1.the problem im having is the lines coming from the reversing switch are not color coded except for the ground. On top of that there are 4 wires coming from the switch. Every diagram I read only shows 2 lines going to the motor. Any help with this would be greatly greatly appreciated!!
