I have a compressor that is supposed to run on 110v and 220v with a simple switch of wires. The motor is a Century. Attached is the spec plate. Also attached are the instructions for making the switch to 220v for that motor. Also attached is what I see when I removed the cover. I don't see the colors indicated in the instructions. I bought this new many years ago and always ran it on 110v. Need to switch to 220.
