Can someone help give me some details on how to wire a Hayward SP32152EE? It came with no wiring schematic and after a fair amount of googling I thought I had it figured out but I am still having a problem with the low speed side. It is replacing a single speed motor so I wired it like shown in the attached pic using a dpdt switch so I could manually switch between high and low speed until I decide on upgrading my controller. Everything works great when the switch is set for high speed but if turn off the power at the timer, flip the switch to what should be low speed, and then turn the timer back on it immediately pops the breaker. From what I could find on the internet it sounded like L2 was common to both circuits and switching the other leg of the 240V connection between L1 and A would control high vs low speed. Am I missing something?
Another thing I thought was interesting was that the L1 and L2 terminals on the motor had the typical spade connector setup but there was nothing on the A terminal. I had to thread a screw into it and loop the wire around and then tighten down the screw. I just thought it was weird that the A terminal didn’t have a connector pre-installed like the others.
