Makes sense. Colors so faded hard to tell. Thanks. Motor works well, but old cloth insulation is very suspect. Going to get new cloth covered wire.

Touch a multi-meter wire, to each one separately and the the other meter wire to a ground. Turn on the fan switch and which ever one reads 6 volts is your hot wire (red).

Ground wire + was grounded to case. I just want to know correct colors. Heater guru on fte said pale yellow with black trace.
