    Bonding wire for new motor question

    I’ll try and turn it some more. Was worried about stripping it. I see where it looks loose but I tugged on it and it’s pretty tight.

    Bonding wire for new motor question

    Ok thanks. So all I need in addition to the wire and the split bolt is a connector like this picture to crimp on the end of the new wire so that it can go under the screw on the motor?

    Bonding wire for new motor question

    I had to get a new motor. Need to attach the bonding wire. But it’s not long enough now. 1. Do I just need more wire, #8 copper and a copper color bolt?

    Pool pump troubleshoot

    There is a master electric switch directly under the timer. I could turn that off, switch the wires and flip the switch and see if the pump comes on is what you mean correct? If so I'll give that a try when i get home from work.

Checked the capacitor with a multimeter and on 200k or 2000k it starts at zero and continues to go up until it...

    Jandy Energy Filter leak. Help!

    I’ll reinspect for cracks, but didn’t see any last time. Would hate to buy a new jar then have to buy a whole new unit. Yes, you open a valve that lets water flow to it and the filter at the same time and it powers the polaris. It has the filter because it comes straight from the pool, doesn’t...
