HVAC Blower Motor - 1 pole vs 2 pole

[thef150]

I pulled the blower motor from my moms 2000 Escalade and found the negative terminal was slightly melted. From what I read that means the motor can be pulling too much power and is a mark of it going bad. Looking online for a replacement most of the results don’t look the same and are single pole vs double pole. The single pole is much cheaper ($35 vs $75). Since I need to replace the wire end anyway due to it being melted, has anyone swapped to a single pole? Or should I just get the one that is double and a new double end? Photos below

So I opted to get the single pole version and adapt the wiring. I’ll let you all know how that goes.

I have always liked sticking with the original design but your decision could be the answer.
