Hello,
I am hoping that someone can help me determine if my pump is bad. I purchased a like new Pentair two speed pump from Amazon. I have never owned a two speed pump. The wiring diagram on the side of the pump seems to imply that it could be wired for high speed all the time. This is what i wanted and wired leg 1 and 2 hot (120volts each). The green wire to ground. When I moved the CB sw to on the CB immediately tripped? I attached the wiring diagram.
Please advise if I did something wrong or how do I troubleshoot the pump for a problem. Is it possible the capacitor is bad?
Thanks for your help.
Tommy
