    Hayward Navigator still not moving after repairs

    My 10-year-old navigator is giving me a run for my money. Wasn't turning or moving so I replaced the shoes, flaps, a-frames, turbine & turbine bearings. Didn't replace the legs (pods?). Suction seems fine. It shows initial promise, then just stops. Feet move fine & the unit turns freely when...

    Pump humming, low speed won't turn on

    I didn’t replace the switch- Inyo said I would need a new Pump b/c replacing the low speed switch was not an option. My low speed will still run so long as high is engaged 1st & then kicks down to low. So, I set my timer to run in that order. Have had no issues.
