Brad,
Yours may be different. I took one of those motors apart when it failed to start. The one I took apart had oilite bushings not bearings. I suspect the someone has tried to lube the bushings. The motor I disassembled did not have seals.
But I am all confuseded. My memory chips are corrupted. I think the condenser motor in the Dometic unit that I worked on was a squirrel cage, and the picture shows a fan style I think.
Does that motor have new start and run caps? I have gotten lost in this thread. If not, I would replace them, or switch them with a good unit before tearing into the motor.
