Does anyone know if the Hayward matrix powerflo pump motor has brushes in it? Mine has a hard time starting and wondering if it is brushes or bearing going bad
Thanks
The AO Smith / Century Flex-48 motors on the Hayward powerflo matrix pumps are brushless. It could be the starting capacitor that is bad.
If you try to turn the impeller, does it spin easily or is it difficult / choppy? Be sure to disconnect the power before attempting to turn the impeller.
