Pool Pump Not Turning On - (Easy Fix)
Вставка
- Опубліковано 5 жов 2024
- Pool Pump not Turning On? It could be okay. Trust me on this. Don't toss that pool pump motor until you try this simple trick to see if you can get it going again. I've had lots of comments on how this video saved people money which is just awesome.
It could save you lots of money on a new pool motor. This pump has continued to work for two seasons and still going strong and I was about to throw it away.
If you really think that you need a new pool motor, then here is the link below to the one I bought recently once the motor in this video got too loud with screeching bearing noises and then finally froze up again. It is so quiet, I almost can't believe it.

You deserve an award for best video! As stated by so many others, this video just saved my family a ton of money! All I did was unplug everything and go through the holes on the end of my pump with a small screwdriver. I turned clockwise very little at a time maybe 5 times and tried it! Magic! It’s working! Thank you!
Glad it helped!
I am a single female and my motor just stopped suddenly with the “humming”, watched this, took the back off and spun it up myself!! THANK YOU THANK YOU- I would have taken it to my pool store first such a simple repair!
Glad it helped
Saved me a bunch of guess work and money, March 6, 2023. Glad I found this video
Glad it helped you out!
It worked! Yay! Thank you so much. You saved a lot of people a lot of money - not to mention the time and aggravation of swapping out for a new one. 😃
Glad it helped!
IT WORKED!!! My pump seemed dead… so I changed the turn on switch 1st… then heard a hum from the pump… sign of life… I sprayed the middle of turning thing under cap…then used my battery powered drill with flat head… turned it a few times to loosen it… then had my wife flick the switch on at moment I was turning the middle screw thing. It kicked right on!! 🙌🏻 JESUS ☝🏻💗
Oh my gosh. I will be so excited if this works for ours! We had it turned off for nearly 5 mos. It was working great. When we turned it back on, we got the low hum.
I hope it works for you.
Almost went to get another. Worked just like you demonstrated, Thank You!
Great Andy! Glad I was able to save you some money.
Awesome I canceled my order for a new one thanks to you sir!!! 💯👍🏻❤️
So glad it helped you out!
Hey thanks for the video, I have a similar pump and your video saved my pool. Thank you for sharing.
Wow amazing! Thank you so much. Mine wasn’t humming- dealt with that hum before. So, I knew it wasn’t the capacitor.
Such an easy fix too, right? Glad it worked.
Great tip thank you! Got our pump going again
Thank You!
Great to hear!
Thanks for the info. I don't turn on my spa motor enough and consequently I'm pretty sure it freezes up. I'm sure going to try your fix before calling the pool guy, as this is probably exactly what he did last time before charging me $150. Really appreciate it.....
You are quite welcome.
Knowledge is power fact that you didn't want to attempt it yourself is what caused you the co$t .
Saved me 300 bucks. Thank you sir
That’s great man!
THANKS MAN! im going to try this tomorrow. i had a feeling that if I could manually spin it it might work
Great! I hope it works for you.
It worked indeed. I had a slight different scenario. For me, I had the same above ground pool w/pump. Less than a few years old. I had left a pool thermometer in the pool floating around. The cheap, $5 ones from Walmart. It had a long, maybe foot long or so, white nylon rope attached to it. Got sucked in down in the pump. Wrapped around the impeller piece so tightly that it stopped the motor. Long story short, while leaving the pump attached to the pool, I was able to bang on the bottom and bottom sides with a rubber mallet. Several times on and off. Motor went from silence, to a hum. A few more light/moderate strikes all around with the mallet, she came back on! Full speed! I did need to remove the entire pump to remove the tangled up nylon. Always be safe, but this method/ingenuity is capable of solving a lot of these pump issues.
Thanks for sharing and watching. 👍🏻
I'm glad I found your video. Thank you.
Glad it was helpful!
ty you so much....saved big bucks...great video
Man that's great. Glad it worked for you.
Forgot all about the impeller. Thanks
Thank you! This worked great!!!
So glad it helped you save some money!
Anyone know how to access the capacitor ? I don’t know how to get to it thanks
Thank you so much man. Just fixed my booster pump to my house. Too broke to buy another one at the moment.
You are welcome!
We have a Pentairjust like in your video but ours is very noisy. Any suggestions before buying a new one?
It's likely that the bearing in it are wearing out. I have been satisfied with the ones I have purchased. They won't last forever.
You just saved me $300 you get a like an a subscribe! Thank u sir!🙌🏼 worked like a charm!!!
Man, that is great to hear. Glad I could help and I appreciate your support.
it worked!!!! thank you!!!
That’s great news! Thanks for watching today.
Thanks I just got mine back running
Great! Thanks for watching today.
Worked like you said appreciated sir
Good to hear
The loud motor has bad bearings, which are easy to replace.
worked for me too, thanks!
Great!
What kind of fountain are you using?
You can check out my other video about the fountain and a link to get one.
my pool pump isnt even humming, any suggestions. I flipped the breakers and theres noise on the on switch but nothing on the pump .. dead silence.
How many years have you had it? If there is no humming noise then it may be done. It may be time to buy another one. The one I linked to is still going strong for me and I purchased the warranty offered to guarantee me about 5 years as I recall. Thanks for watching today!
Genius. Mine was making a hmmmming noise, did what you said and it worked. Thanks
Great news!
Hey I left my motor run for way under a minute and today right now it turns on but for only a second or two what should I do ?
If the motor runs for a bit and then stops, it might be time for a new one.
@@hoov45 Not yet I put some ice to cool it down even though it wasnt really hot just a little warm and after couple of hours it turned right on. So the over load switch triggers the united off to protect the motor.
Mine will spin like you showed but I have no hum. The pump has been getting hot and shutting it self off. Have come back n its running again. Shut it off last night to listen to fireworks. Come back out in morning and nothing. Nothing all day 22 hrs later. 😢😢 ???? No burnt looking area when I took black switch lid off. I could turn it like you did. Still nothing ???
5 yr old pump looks just like the one in video the Pentair one.
Put the cover back on. Hit it with a rubber mallett and it came on. NEXT !!!
Glad you got it fixed!
Decent video but make it took a long time to get to the punch line.
Mine won’t turn
If you can't turn the impeller around with your finger some then that bearings may be to far gone. When I replaced my pump I found a good one and made a video about it. I also decided to go ahead and get the extended warranty to give me several years with peace of mind that I would not have to worry about buying another one.
Here's that link to that video and my installation of the new pump. ua-cam.com/video/gTD_OK_xxBg/v-deo.html
Good luck and thanks for watching.
Whoa
Dear Hoov45 - you are a life saver. Thanks so much for taking the time to out up this video. You have saved me so much time, money and headache.
I appreciate your kind words and I am so happy that it was of help to you. Thank you for watching!
