Once again I come to you for words of wisdom...
yesterday i I went to check on the pool and the filter motor wasn't running. No sounds coming from it at all. Turned on and off and no change. Opened the back and part of the capacitor had melted. Cool, easy fix. Ordered new one from Amazon.
installed it this morning and the motor will now hum but won't start. I left it on a little bit looking around and it started to smoke with the sickening electric smell (bad). Turned it off quickly.
i opened the filter side but can't reach the blade to see if it will spin. Suggestions on what to try next?
thanks in advance.
