Help! Our pump is not working. It makes a humming noise when we turn it on. So we replaced the capacitor and that did not solve the problem. Any ideas on what else it could be? Attach is a picture if it helps in any way.
If it doesn't spin freely it may indicate either something is jamming the impeller, which should be an easy fix or bearings that need replacing which is a little more work.

Sounds just like my pump i had to replace. Turn it on and it would hum. I had to replace it. To just replace the motor was like 50 bucks cheaper than replacing the entire thing. So i just replaced everything.
Thanks for all the help!!! You saved me some $$$!!! It was a bad bearing that needed to be replaced! That solved my issue! Now i have another issue with DE getting back into the pool! Not complaining though, i love my pool!!
