Appreciate the help, I'll update once I can check it. As an aside, is there a way to convert a hard wired connection to a plug-in connection?

The bottom breaker goes to the pump, it’s been switched on and off repeatedly. It never tripped. Pic of the switch outside attached. I’ve reset the GFCI a bunch of times. I plugged a wet vac into the both outlets to confirm it’s working. I’m comfortable testing voltage, I just don’t have the...

Not sure if it's a splice - the wiring was done by an electrician when we replaced the outlet last year. Everything is the same as he wired it except I replaced the spade terminal on the black wire earlier today when I was reconnecting.

Here's a pic of the breakers. I don't have a standard multimeter unfortunately.

Sorry - wrong pic (I took this one earlier when I thought I was going crazy and switched the red and black leads to try to fix the issue). Currently it's set up like pic attached here - this matches how it was wired previously before the trouble started.

Pic attached. I have a small non-contact voltimeter. I checked that it's working by putting it in the socket that the pump is hardwired into. I touched it to the hot wire before I connected anything and it detected current. I then connected all three leads - when I turn on the breaker, I'm...

Hi All, So my pump died a few days ago. No humming or anything, just wouldn't start at all. Pump is just over a year old, and the outlet it's wired into is about the same age. The outlet is getting power, and I tested the wire to the pump and it's powered as well. I took the pump to a local...

I actually figured it out soon after I posted this, but this was correct. Thank you!

I'm opening my pool myself for the first time. The heater is for the pool and a separate hot tub - never once used the heater or the hot tub. Opened the pool and got everything running fine, except water was bubbling out of the heater. I took off the panel and saw that there's an unattached...
