Looking for help with a Hayward Super 700 pump. Pump wont turn back on and is making no noises to indicate anything wrong. Circuits have not been tripped as well. Yesterday I ran it for about half a day and the filter needed a backwash so I turned it off and left it like that over night. This morning when I attempted to start my backwash the pump would not turn on at all. This problem has happened on 3 different occasions and our local pool provider has no issues charging us $150 per visit and fixing it in 15 minutes while also avoiding us since we've been asking them to show us what they are doing exactly to get it back up and running. The pool has been abandoned for three years and were attempting to filtrate all the algae and clean it. Pump(2mths) and Filter(1yr) are both new-ish. I have been backwashing almost daily to ensure everything runs decently. We got pool to about a semi clear state and then this happened.
Hayward Pump won't turn back on?

Hi, welcome to TFP! If the pump is only 2 months old it should still be under warranty. Did you buy it and have it installed by your current pool service company?
Is the pump on any kind of timer? I'm going to ask one of our experts to help with your question. If its not a timer issue there could be a wire loose somewhere. I would think that if it is being serviced under warranty they shouldn't charge you for it. You may want to call a few other pool service companies and see if they will do warranty work on your pump and what they would charge. Something else you can try is to contact Hayward directly and see if they can troubleshoot your pump or replace it under warranty. Contact Us Residential Form | Hayward Pool Products

If that pump is wired for 240v the wiring in the timer is wrong. Be very careful if you or a service person works on it. It looks like only half the power will be off if the timer is off.
