LOL!!!! You rocked it brother! I'm not disagreeing with Ranger1, but that IS a ground wire and a grommet won't help in that situation. Too funny, you did good! I bet I know where you can get a job!

Lowew..... What do you charge an hour? I literally just had an A/C motor lock up.
I’d prefer the peckerheads kept to a minimum and the nipples on the outside.

Well good that is all done then. Thanks to you all for your help! This sort of thing causes me way more stress than it should but I'm lucky to have experienced folks on here in many trades to talk me through it. Thank God I was able to do it (no sarcasm) and thank Him for you guys being so kind as to talk me through it.

Had to get my AC Fan motor replaced. When the guy wired up the new one he passed some wires through the top of the unit. It wasn't like that before with the old unit. He said he does it this way to keep the wire from getting into the fan blades. It doesn't look right though and I've never seen it done this way on any other AC. Won't these wires wear out in the sun though as opposed to down inside the unit? Photo... ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2020/08/full-60373-61975-img_0835.jpeg) This is common, typical, and industry wide. There have been no failures, deaths, injuries, etc related to this practice. The other option is a much more expensive motor that is from the maker of the unit. Sure looks halfassed to me. Even if it is “ok”, I wouldn’t want my outside unit looking rigged up. I’d demand they take 5 more minutes and do a better job at securing the wiring PROPERLY.
