Inducer Motor Replacement Bryan 90 Plus

I have a Bryan 90 Plus furnace that needs the inducer motor changed. The company that came to look at it wanted $1200. I googled and found that it was an easy job. I ordered what I thought was the right part. Everything fit exactly as it should. The only problem was my wire connection has 4 wires and the new one has 3. Is there a fix or can some point me in the right direction to the correct part?

    I don't know. You should only need 3 wires to run the inducer, hot-Black, neutral-White and green-Equipment ground.

    Maybe the 4th wire coming out of the motor is a centrifugal switch output to prove motor operation.

    Is there a pressure switch installed on the furnace to prove the inducer is running?

    Look at the manual & the original wiring diagram and find out what the 4th wire does will give you a clue

    Maybe you could provide model # and serial # so it can be looked up.

    Thats a two stage inducer and you have a single stage one with 3 wires. Give me the model # and I can give you the correct part #

    $1,200 isn't looking too bad right about now.

    The old inducer motor part number that starts with HC27 AND the furnace model number . I can look it up on the Bryant Dealer website. There may be a new number for the part that says "Replaces HC27?????"
