The pump will be running a couple of hours then just shut off. I won't be able to turn it back on until it's sat and cooled for a while.
On occasion, the breaker is flipped when this happens, but not always. I've been running pump about 8 hours a day, but now it's very unreliable.
Is this what pumps do before they are about to go bad? It seems to be getting very hot. How hot is normal? Also, this could just be my imagination, but it seems a bit louder than usual. here
Last year, I had a couple of times when the pump would just shut off, but now it is doing it more frequently. here
Before I pay the pool guy a good small fortune to come out and take a look, I thought I'd see if there is any advanced troubleshooting you might recommend. [links]
2004 Sweetwater Bahia model: Heater wiring on circuit board burnt. Drained spa. Received updated / replacement part numbers from Sundance. Replaced circuit board and heater unit. Refilled spa. FL2 on panel kept coming on and shutting off circ pump / heater. Called Sundance, told to replace flow switch. Replaced flow switch. Everything works fine for 2 – 3 days. Have temp set at 102, F1 or F4 skimming / heater mode. Now circ pump turns off between 12 hour cycles. No error messages displayed on panel. If I change modes circ pump will not come back on. If I turn off / turn on spa at wall junction box, circ pump starts working again. Then some time before next cycle it turns off again. No error messages. Please help. Thanks here
