Through research, I decided I needed to replace the shaft seal. I took the entire pump apart. When I did that, there was a white crusty substance inside most of the unit. I'm wondering if this means the water leak has affected the motor and bearings? When I separated the motor, and test ran...
Hello,
My pool pump is getting incredibly loud. It is 14 years old and keeps me up when it runs at night. It seems to work fine, as far as I can tell, but I can't handle the noise! Wondering if I could just replace the motor or if I should replace the whole thing? I do believe it leaks a...

This is just one site I pulled up by doing a google search. I actually bought mine off of ebay. Works great! Finally after 12 years I will have decent...
Thank you for your thoughts. I can rule out any water loss from anybody using the pool. Unfortunately it is just a pretty water hole that I dump money into, never gets used anymore. :( And I have put on the new Polaris tail sweep that prevents the water from spraying out. I don't have an...

So, after finally fixing the heater and using it one time, tried to use it again tonight, and absolutely nothing....... :(
Any ideas of what to do now? I'm so upset that it finally got fixed, worked beautifully, and now nothing.
OH MY GOSH!!! Literally crying and jumping for joy right now. (yes, I am female :wink: ) Attached the wires, and the heater fired right up. This has been SIX years of an unusable heater! Not for lack of trying, I tried and tried to figure this out through the years and was never able to...
SO GRATEFUL for your information! Another question: would the heater attempt to fire up or work at all without these wires attached, or would it be completely disabled? Only asking that in anticipation of trouble shooting further once I get the wires reattached. It has been several years...
She pulled them off the limits. She severed the wires from the clip attachments of the turquoise and purple wire. The red wire is still completely intact. So from what I can tell, the purple and red wire were on one limit together, but I can't figure out anything beyond that. I can post a...
