When you write a post, do you see the "Add attachment" button in the top right corner? If not, you are probably using the "quick reply" window at the bottom of the page. Click "Reply" at the right, and the window with all the options including adding attachments will appear at the top of the page. If it still won't go, you may have to make it smaller than the 1 MB max. If you still don't see it, you may have to select "Allow scripts" for Freeforums.net and Proboards.com We promise not to spam you if you do.

Fan should be on right away. If fan had only two wires you can hook it to the power comming into the ro-81. That might be better anyway.
When the fan has power does it still turn easy? If not the bearings have too much side play as blackhorse suggested today in another thread.

yes the fan turns freely,no side play at all,is it normal for the relay to be hot to the touch.I put a fan in front of the condenser to continue cking.

Yes solid state relays do have some heat to them. Disc inside must stay hot to keep the start winding off. Temp. fan should let you see if the rest works right before you buy a fan motor.
