Electrical – Why does the Goodman a/c blower motor randomly not work

air-conditioningelectricalheatingrepair

My blower motor stops working almost every night! I have no issues during the day. If the motor kicks on it works fine but when the thermostat reaches temperature and shuts the unit off it’s a 50/50 chance if the blower will work in the next cycle after dark. The condenser will kick on but the blower will not so I have to turn the unit off. The next morning I can turn the unit back on and it works fine. It also does this with the heat. It’s a gas unit. I have had the board changed and thermostat wires replaced with no luck. I am out of ideas in this one. My ac guy can’t figure it out either

Motor controller and or run start capacitor (s) are going bad. That's my first guess. It works when cold(not used for a while) then once used it gets hot ad does not work.
