This is driving me crazy and costing me a lot of money... So my pool pump turns off and on several times during the day. It's a very strange behavior: It starts normally, after a while it shuts down and a just few seconds later (no more than 20 seconds) starts right back. It does it multiple times during the day, sometimes multiple times during the hour. The motor is not hot to the touch as far as I can tell.
The frustrating part is that I have called two different pool companies. The technicians always seem to be in a hurry and don't wait for the behavior to occur but I still end up paying the service call. So the first tech told me that I have to change everything pump and motor even though he wasn't sure that would solve the problem. The second tech spent a little more time and said that it could be a chip in the Easy Touch panel but he wasn't certain.
Any clue as to what could be causing this? By the way the motor is over a year old but I don't think the culprit is the motor as the same thing was happening with the old one as well.
