Hello everyone,
We live in New Jersey. Pool was closed last winter and working fine at the time. Pool was opened yesterday and when we started the pump the impeller would not spin and the pump would overheat and click off.
- Capacitor was tested and was not the problem.
- Checked the impeller and there was some debris. Cleaned that.
- Impeller would not spin so I forced it by hand to spin both ways.
- Put it all back together and the pump kicked on but is now super loud.
- Also, the impeller and rod now spin with little resistance…
Did I break something and can it be easily fixed?
Thank you in advance!
