Booster pump turns on but cleaner has no pressure.

[jhulkow]

Turning pool on i have slight pressure barely but slight not enough to move the cleaner. Once the booster turns on i lose the little pressure I have and have 0 pressure at that point. The rest of the circulation outlets (2) in the pool push water harder but not the cleaner outlet. Please someone help

Welcome to TFP.

The booster pump hoses are reversed.

Water goes into the booster pump at the front and then is pushed into the pool through the top pipe.

Motor looks new and there's the wet spot to go along with it.

I hope you replaced the original shaft seal while you were at it otherwise it will leak very soon and take out the new motor.
