New here....this forum has been greatly helpful; thankful to the hosts, admins and contributors.
FYI - just replaced my start capacitor on my 2 speed Century pump. Unsure how old the pump is, but the capacitor I replaced had a build date of 2012.
I discovered is was the start capacitor because when turning on the high speed, it just buzzed like an electric chair without starting, but the low speed would run just fine. Here's the diagnostic and replacement video that confirmed if for me (my pump is almost the same one he is working on):
Just curious how often these things go out. Very easy and cheap replacement part, but just curious.
Thanks,
Pat
