I believe you mean the condensor fan is working as the condensor would have to fail some pretty obvious visual inspections to recieve a “not working” lable.

In any case I have replaced several blower motors in this model. The job is not for the inexperienced or for ths “ham-fisted”. This job requires a delicate touch and a tech with a good memory and a lot of patience. Not a lot I can think of to soften this up as I believe the tech has used proper diagnostic procedure in calling the blower motor the problem (unless you provide info. to the contrary).
