Hello,
I hope someone could help me out, I have a Pentair Whisperflo 1.5 HP two speed pump. The pool pump runs fine on low speed but when switched to high speed, after making a little different louder humming noise than usual, it starts for about 2-3 seconds and shuts off. If I am fast enough and switch it back to low on those between those 2-3 seconds it continues to run, otherwise it just shuts off and I need to wait a few minutes before it would allow me to turn it back on and run it on low again. I have a start capacitor and a run capacitor on top of the motor. Does this sounds like a bad capacitor?
