Well, no such luck on the new capacitor as the motor's doing the same thing as before,,,, just a hum and not wanting to spin.

The date on the pump is 01/2011 and was purchased from the late (great) Ted Lea when I first installed my system in May 2012. At this point is it worth tearing down for further inspection/testing and possible repair? I know nothing about electric motors but have a desire to learn and am willing to try if I'd be able to find parts and do it myself.

Researching, my only guess at this point is the start and and/or run windings? Anything else I can check or test?

Unfortunately I just dropped about $150 on the top end rebuild and they don't give new ones away frown .

Thanks again for any ideas and sorry for so many questions on this!
