Failed Jandy VS-FHP2.0

[markcrompton]

Appears the motor drive electronics in my VS-FHP have failed. The unit is 7 years old. Motor has power (confirmed), iAqualink shows Priming on my phone screen but rpm = 0. Using the iQPUMP01 to force the motor on doesn't change anything. When I removed the lid, the inside electronics were wet.

Question: Can I replace the motor drive with the newer model "R0688600, Gen II Variable Frequency Motor Drive" or do I have buy a whole new pump?

My unit is a circa 2013 unit, (part # R0534500) as shown in this link: Jandy VS Flo Pro Series Pump Parts
Don't think that control unit is available.
