Fantastic thanks! My Pentair motor is about $600 so if I can just replace the capacitor I'll be super happy. Nice simple explanation, hope you eventually figured out you replaced the pump basket the wrong way around :D.

Yes, pump basket needs the open hole oriented toward the input pipe.

@EdwardinTX - thanks to your video I was able to save $200 - $300 + on the repair of my pool pump. I ordered the exact same capacitor and it arrived the next day, and it only took me about 15 minutes to remove the existing one and put the new one in. My capacitor was toast and that was the only issue. The best feeling in the world was when I flipped the switch and the pump started running again. Felt great to save all of that money. Thank you!

Thanks for the tips bro. I couldn’t get my hand in far enough to feel the impeller so I stuck a screwdriver inside and poked around and thanks to God my pump started! Yes the sound of glory was heard! Just an FYI my pump is the Pentair Variable Speed 342001

Great video! Thanks. Have the exact same motor and this morning, on the 10th anniversary after installation, it just stopped running. Was shopping for new motor, $300+ dollars and saw this video. Pulled the capacitor, checked it per the video and it was bad. Ordered the $8.00 capacitor from Amazon.

Yeah, the basket is in the wrong position. That way you’re blocking your line. Hole in the basket must be aligned with the suction hole.

EdwardInTX also, I suggest you to use hammer only when opening the lid, when you’re closing, just hand-tight it. It also says in the manual to not over-tighten. But you don’t need to use hammer at all. You just give it a couple of strokes, and it comes off easily. Make a video about that

I think yours uses a longer capacitor. My recommendation is to open it first to check, then order. That's what I ended up doing.

What made u think it was the capacitor, and how long do they last on average? My intelliflo was having problem priming, and I let it set a few days then went to troubleshoot it. The pump turned on, but u couldn't get it to run, and the display numerals were very light
