I turned my pump on this morning after cleaning the basket and the lid cracked. I can’t find a replacement lid/cover for this pump. This is a new build and we just filled the pool last week. Got the whole pool and pump from Pool Warehouse and they are closed today. I went to three pool stores and none of them have ever heard of this pump or seen a lid that would fit. Any help would be appreciated on a way to replace or repair the cover. One place told me to try Marine JB Weld, thoughts?

That's probably a disposable pump. If this is a new build you should have a list of the equipment that they sold you in detail somewhere and you should have been supplied with the owners manuals for them.

Welcome to TFP.
Make a warranty claim. You are not going to find that cover in a pool store.
Pour 3ppm of liquid chlorine in your pool daily and stir it in with your pool brush to keep it from turning green until you get your pump running.

Yes I have the manual with the part number. Can’t locate the part on the internet.
Did you ever register your warranty with them? Of course, it's still an imported Chinese pump. What all did you get with your pool? Is this an above ground pool? They have the cheapest equipment compositions.
Chinese clone of a Hayward Super Pump. Unfortunately, they didn't copy the lid exactly (probably to avoid patent infringement).
Same pump body is also marketed under ExtremePower and Walmart's brand. Repair parts do not appear to be available, even on Excel's and ExtremePower sites.
