I replaced dual capacitor when it failed last week. i also wanted to replace fan motor. It worked since wednesday. today i shut it down to replace fan motor, compressor came on but fan did not. old motor isn't spinning either. today i replaced contacts and capacitor but compressor is running and fan will not run. Help!!

Possbly you miswired the fan. Post the make and model number. Also look inside the electrical compartment on the condenser for a wiring diagram.
