Thank you for the response!!!! Local!! So over $400 is what I should expect for this fan motor? Guessing it is specific to the Pool Heat pump? Sounds like most home AC heat pump fan motors must cost a lot less.. I will get it ordered ASAP.. We called the supplier my HVAC tech uses and they could...

It is nothing but rust.. Here is an example of the replacement part I am seeing online...

Ok, it took some time to get someone out to look at the heat pump, but we found the issue today. I did not feel comfortable checking all the voltage correctly so I got an expert. The result is a bad fan motor. It is drawing 5amp and should be much lower. From my above description it took 3-4min...

That will be the next step, Thank You!! It was your post in another topic that I found the capacitor.. Great value, I appreciate all the assistance!!

This is an image of the components I see.. Will work some more on it today... The arrows are the two things I have replaced so far.

I do not know if it makes a difference, but this diagram says the "Single Phase – 50Hz/60Hz" also and is how I believe mine is wired.. It is what I have been using so I hope it is correct..:)

I will work to see if I can narrow down the the voltage question. Great point, is the fan getting electricity and not spinning or is it being told to turn off? If it was being told to turn off, any thoughts on what could cause this? This was my first thought and why I tried replacing the...

No, not hot. It does not run long enough to get hot. It starts every time and then stops.. I will start looking for someone to check the refrigerant pressures and see if that is an issue.. I agree after this much time it is a good idea regardless. It is just very puzzling to me that it never...

Ok, this could 100% be the case and I am far far form an expert.. :) If I wanted to explore to see if I have a high or low pressure condition what would I do next? It sounds like it is past an internet fix, so if I asked a HVAC tech out what would I ask them to look for? Just wondering if that...

I have a 10yr old Ultratemp 120. I have made repairs in the past, but this one has me stumped. The unit powers on without issue, with the pool water temp below the desired temp when I start the unit the fan starts, and the 5min delay starts. During the delay, typically with less than 3min on the...
