It seems like i never throw anything away but the bearings are likely small and cheap.? The rotor, end bell, and fan blades might be worth saving and I don't know if the stator and windings can be removed to save the frame but that is all a lot of work for

Annu,
Glad you are up and running.
If it was me, I would at least open the old motor to see if the short is outside the windings. Like damaged insulation of the connecting wires. You cannot damage it much more.
Curious if any of our motor experts would recommend saving the old motor to salvage bearings if the need arose. It is not worth it for saving money but seems like a good way to insure against obsolescence.
