Anybody ever come across a wiring diagram for this motor? I had to replace the capacitors and the existing wiring between them was burnt off I'm not sure I wired the new caps in correctly. When I went to start the motor, it tried to start but eventually overloaded out before getting up to speed.

Marathon Electric Crop Drying Motor
Model: BB215BDR326CEW
HP: 10
FRAME: 215
DES: L
RPM: 1760
VOLT: 230
FLA: 50

So far I'm not having any luck on my smart phone looking it up on the Internet.

Thank you in advance!

A wiring diagram is not going to help you with the caps. There's usually a couple big starting caps wired in parallel, maybe a running cap.

Sounds like the problem could be with the starting switch anyway. There is no good reason for the wire between the caps to burn up usually because they are only in the circuit for a second. Caps are often the canary in the coal mine.
