The only wires left over were from the return side of the compressor fan and were originally hooked on the start relay but there is no voltage there. Any help with the second line wire?
Leo Leo, A 3 in 1 kit, will probably keep you going for now. Most manufacturers recommend you avoid these type kits and components. Without any wiring information for the 3 in 1 kit, we can't really recommend how or where the wiring attaches. The Blue wire is L1 (120 VAC into the compressor, from the defrost timer. The black wire from the condenser fan motor is an L1 power source, after the fan motor, and usually would attach to the capacitor, but you're not going to have a capacitor, anymore. The capacitor should be internal to the 3 in 1 kit. The attached wiring diagram should help you out in wiring the kit into the system, between the two (instructions and diagram) you should be up and running soon.

Joe,
It ended up being a burned compressor. Thanks for all your help. I learned a lot. Unfortunately, the outcome was fatal.
Leo:(
