Pool Cleaner Motor Not Working

The cleaner appears to be working fine for a while but then stalls without warning.

Pool cleaner motor not working.

If the pool cleaner does not respond your motor is bad. Check that it is not a mechanical problem with the motor pump or wheels. If you disassemble it the oil inside runs out. If your pump is not starting you ll want to check a couple of things.

If the pump is on and you are hearing a humming noise it could be a bad capacitor. Make sure the cord is not tangled around any part of the cleaner. The pool pump motor is not working or turning off while running. Automatic pool cleaners are an integral part of pool maintenance.

Setting up the vacuum is a simple matter of attaching suction hoses into the pool s pump system and turning the pool pump on. If the meter shows 29v you are getting power to the motor. The 35v motor has 4 capacitors to jump start it. The capacitor is what starts the pump by giving it a jolt of electricity.

I really only need to know what type of oil to use to replace it. First check to see if the pump is getting power and check your timer to make sure the pump is on. Disaster strikes and time comes to a standstill if your pool cleaner stops working. Some vacuums do their work automatically while others must be run along the pool surfaces by hand with an extension pole but in either type internal filters or nets in the vacuum head trap the debris from the pool water.

Then place the meter probes into the plug on the motor end of the cable. This post is for all those my pool cleaner is not you can fill in the blank because no matter if you have a suction pressure or robot pool cleaner at one point you will have pool cleaner problems details below. I have replaced the capacitors once before in my own machine without loosing the oil and reusing it. At this point if the cleaner is not still under warranty it is usually cheaper to buy a new cleaner than sending the cleaner out for a motor replacement.
