Hello All,
First time poster. I've read an hours worth of posts and could not find the specific issue i am having posted...
During the summer last year, I came into the backyard and could not hear the filter pump going although it was to be running. Checked the panel and it was turned on, yet no action. I tried to find voltage on the pump but was unsuccessful (did not look through guides at the time, i am fairly handy). Then I thought, I have a waterfall pump, let me rewire the filter pump to the waterfall pump and see if that starts the pump...rewired, turned on, and it worked. Since then, I left it wired like that with the intent of doing more troubleshooting through the summer, but got busy. I reprogrammed the scheduling to include the "waterfall" (now swapped for the filter pump) which is fine for the automation, but not as great when my family wants to use the pool as they have to turn things on and off in a certain order so not to damage the heater during cooldown etc...it leaves me quite anxious.
It would appear the pump itself, and the wiring to the pump are fine. Automation works otherwise in the reconfigured manner, so no the timer?
So, thoughts on what I should check? Would this be an issue with the Filter relay?
Thank you in advance!
