So I have a leak between my 3 way diverter valve and the actuator on top. I think they are both Compool (actuator is). the black 3 way valve has no markings at all, no part number no name. I assume compool since that's what the other older valves are. How do I know what o-ring kit will work...

Many thanks!

Thank you!

Thank you so much!! I appreciate all the help and knowledge

I installed it. Checking with the seller to see if there is a warranty. Gritty and that whistle! what else could cause a whistling noise? I'm trying to figure out which bearings for it. I already ordered some but can return them. if anyone can help with the bearings, I'd be grateful. I...

UGH! It is my booster pump motor, not the main pump. Did not occur to me because the booster pump motor was new in July!! Does this sound like bad bearings? a photo of it's info plate: Thank you, ~Marci

I'd love to post a pic but I can't get to the label without removing the pump motor. Thank you tho

I think my bearings are bad on my main pump. It's a century B2855 INYO pools said I need both 6203 and 6304. Does that seem right? What size bearing puller tool do I need? Will a 3" do it? Thank you -Marci

Aww man, of course I bought a GE 😂 Thank you!

Thank you! I did find where to cut power to that entire box, which was the only way I'd try it, but I very much appreciate the reminder!! I found two possible options for that mounting plate (plastic plus the bus and other metal attachments) One video I watched said that different CBs don't...

That looks like it might be above my skill level but should we decide to stay here, I will consider it. I found a Jandy Power Load Center Breaker Mount Base Plate that is new, and an older Siemens used plate, both of which look to be the right shape, but am not clear if my GE breakers will fit...

Thank you, that's what I was afraid of. It is not my forever home, honestly, i can't wait to sell it but we'll be here another 2-5 years most likely. I'm not sure I'm handy enough to replace the entire thing, heck, I wouldn't even know what all I need to look for in a new one. But I'll keep...

One thing that makes me leery is that the black plastic mounting plate that the breakers snap into, is damaged. That electrical box faces west in the hot Texas sun and the plastic is pretty brittle after a few decades. If I replace the others, I'm thinking I need to replace that thing too so...

I might! I've got a million other projects but it will go on my list :)

AND ... SUCCESS!!! Many, many thanks! all appears to be back functioning well!!! THANK YOU

So if I'm understanding, I move the white wire that is coming down from the top, move it from that left-hand bar of screws, move it to the neutral screw of the new CB Correct? Ima do that right after my coffee

UGH!!! that did not work. I changed the black wire to the gold screw. When I turn it all on, i get a flash of power on the board and then nothing. Crud. I am defeated. I can't do more tonight due to dark and wet. Any and all suggestions for next steps are appreciated. Heavy sigh.

Appreciate this so much Off to fix it and turn it on Good news is it is on the outside of my detached garage so if it explodes or starts a fire, my house should be safe Can't thank you enough!!

really? Crud,I thought silver was neutral. So if I move the black wire to the gold screw, I should be ok? Nothing goes to the silver screw? Do I have the white wire correctly set on that lefthand side of neutral screws? THANK YOU. this is why I asked before turning it all on. ;):oops::eek:

Well, here's what I've done. If one of y'all can look at it and LMK what you think, I'd love it. (I'm scared to turn the power back on:ROFLMAO: hoping for feedback before I do) First pic is how the old one was wired. Second pic is how I wired the new one. (so I used the brass colored one and...

can't thank you enough. I may have questions once i get into it, but this has been SO helpful. thank you

Oh that's a good idea. I will have to see if I can figure out how to do that! So move the cleaner pump to be with the waterfall pump and replace both with GFCI's? I am a complete idiot about most of this, but I love to learn and am a DIYer when I can. Thank you!!

yes, I have a separate waterfall pump. the only other thing we have is lights, and the spa

heck if I know. I will try to trace the wires tomorrow. It's raining and dark now. I did figure out how to cut power to that box, and am looking into how I can replace the CB's. I am guessing I should replace all three, while I'm at it. but maybe I'll start with just one.

I meant are both pumps wrong. So it sounds to me like the age of my CB is the problem and hopefully replacing it will fix it. I should replace all of them in that box, I assume. I will investigate whether that is something I think I can do, or maybe even see if my father-in-law can help (he...
