I am trying to change my voltage settings on AOSmith C48K2N143B1 from 230v to 115v. Why? My old plug broke, I wired a new one, but when I started the pump it hummed and popped the breaker. The plug I used is 15amp/125 volts, and I am worried the pump can't get enough juice. I can't find a 15 or 20 amp 230 replacement plug anywhere. I took off the black jumper and was going to line up the arrow to the 115v setting, but the left most prong already has a metal cover on it, the end of the cover has a tan wire sautered to it.
Am I supposed to move the tan wire to the right most prong that won't be in use anymore? Or does the metal covered prong mean I can't change the setting?
