Pool pump
Time has come to get the pool clean but the pump is struggling to start, its a davey power ace that i replaced the bearings in earlier this and was running fine up till swimming weather closed.
Motor is not seized and will start after a few on/offs but then wont come back on with the timer and then must overheat or overload and then cut out completely. Now it has a plastic cover on top of the motor that i assume encloses some electrickery that is causing the starting problem ?

Rewire coil, has happened several times to me?
There is a fine line between "Hobby" and "Madness"
Is that something thats easy to get, is it manufacturer specific ?Originally Posted by allover
if it starts sometimes and others it hums its more than likley the capacitor
most are capaciter start,maybe a coroded or broken connection
get someone to look at it befor you burnout the windings
Similar issue with our house pump ( we are on tank water), in that the pump would work fine if we flicked the power point on/off a few times. Ended up taking it to the pump shop and they fitted a new capacitor, and all has been good since. Take it to a plumbers supplies, or irrigation repairers rather than to a pool shop. My betting is a pool supplier will just try to sell you a new pump. My new capacitor was tested, refitted, again tested, and I paid $30.00 ( cash speaks) and all is good.
Right, i'll just remove it and get a newy then.
