Hi, I have a Centruy ECM27SQU (AOSECM27SQU) - 2.7 HP Variable Speed Pool Pump Motor Square Flange. The fault message is "low power". Pump ran fine last night. It tries to start for a few seconds and then the fault noted appears. Than seems like it is rubbing or something. I am about to take it apart and look but was hoping for some insight here. Thank you, Matt.

Welcome to TFP 
What is the power reading from the breaker? is it connected using 220v? Is the pump getting 220v from the breaker?
Try turning the breaker off, wait 30 seconds and turn back on and see what that does

Thank you for the response! I am not sure how to check the reading but it has been connected to 220 for 5 years now and running perfectly. This was an overnight thing. I did turn off the breaker to check the connections to the pump and they all look fine. It seems like it is trying to protect itself by cutting off.Welcome to TFP

hmmm, did you have some storms or lighting last night? VS pumps HATE lighting, power fluctuations, brown outs, black out or you name it... Do you have any surge protectors on your whole house or pump electrical box?
