Goodman 0131M00401S Condenser Fan Motor Fixed Speed ECM 1/3 HP 230V 1 PH 50/60 Hz

The Goodman 0131M00401SP (often referenced by SKU 0131M00401SP) is a high-efficiency Fixed Speed ECM (Electronically Commutated Motor) designed to serve as the "brain" of your outdoor unit’s thermal regulation. This 1/3 HP motor is the primary driver of airflow across the condenser coils, ensuring that refrigerant heat is effectively dissipated. Engineered for the GSXC, DSXC, and ASXC high-efficiency condenser series, this motor utilizes advanced ECM technology to provide constant torque while consuming significantly less energy than traditional PSC motors. Its ability to maintain precise RPMs allows your system to hit its SEER ratings consistently, even during peak summer temperatures.

Key Features

🛠️ HVAC Depot Pro Tip

"Take a Picture First"—before you cut any zip ties or disconnect the motor leads from the control board or contactor, photograph the wire routing. ECM motors like the 0131M00401S often have specific communication or power harnesses that must be oriented correctly to prevent water from wicking into the motor head. During your Diagnostic Check, ensure the fan blade is clean and balanced; a bent blade will cause premature bearing failure in your new motor. Always verify that the outdoor power is disconnected at the pull-out box before starting your installation.
