[QUOTE="larbec, post: 388454, member: 25947"] I am trying to go behind someone else and hook get my ventahood to work when we turn it on in the kitchen. The disconnect, motor starter in on the roof. I replaced the contactor and motor today as they were hit by lightening but I do not seem to have control voltage to our fan. I can see the contactor kick in when we turn on the switch in the kitchen but the fan does not turn. It is a 480vac 3 phase motor I can take L1 L2 L3 and tie them together with the yellow wires form this old starter in the picture and the fan works but I can not seem to get the fan to work when we turn on the switch on the kitchen. It looks to me that the last electrician used the old starter as a pass through or something. How can I or what do I need to do to get this to operate properly? Thanks [ATTACH]5805._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5806._xfImport[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]5807._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
