    I like your videos but I think you should have just connected your wires to the pump instead of splicing into the old cord. Considering you're going to be dealing with wet situations I wouldn't have taken a chance with butt connectors and shrink tubing. In a situation where you were dealing with a pump that had spent some time in water to where the screws were rusted and couldn't be removed I can see where this may help in a pinch. Just one guys opinion, thanks for the videos.

    Did I just see a Ghost?!?!? Chis, where have you been? I haven’t seen any videos for like 2 months! I thought you had been abducted by aliens or something....
    Anyway I got learnded once again by Professor Chris. Two heat shrinks is gonna be water tight to +/- 1000 ft below sea level, yup a nice repair indeed. Keep the video’s coming!

    You forgot to put the big heat shrink on and had to redo it didn’t you? Been there done that. Regular black tape will come loose if it’s soaked on water.

      Yes... Good catch. Haha. We actually ended up taking the wires out of the motor housing to slip it over!

    Cut your leads longer and stagger those butt connectors so you can use the smaller heat shrink...

    Great video, thanks! I replaced the capacitor in my Zoeller M137-D and it worked fine for two weeks, but now keeps throwing the GFCI. No apparent wire, impeller, or other problems I can find. Do you know if there is a website that has REAL photos on it of the wiring between the switch, capacitor, and poles? Zoeller's diagrams are nice, but I would like to see actual photos of the wiring. Thanks!

    I'm not finding any videos about if you get water into where the power cable connects into the submersible pump and having continuity on both the positive and negative.
