Pool Cleaner Motor Not Working

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.

Pool cleaner motor not working.

If you disassemble it the oil inside runs out. The pool pump motor is not working or turning off while running. If the meter shows 29v you are getting power to the motor. If the pool cleaner does not respond your motor is bad.

The 35v motor has 4 capacitors to jump start it. I have replaced the capacitors once before in my own machine without loosing the oil and reusing 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.

I have an aquabot pool cleaner and pump motor stopped working. You often have to babysit it to make sure it finishes cleaning. Then place the meter probes into the plug on the motor end of the cable. The capacitor is what starts the pump by giving it a jolt of electricity.

This is a common issue for many pool. The cleaner appears to be working fine for a while but then stalls without warning. If the pump is on and you are hearing a humming noise it could be a bad capacitor. Setting up the vacuum is a simple matter of attaching suction hoses into the pool s pump system and turning the pool pump on.

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. I really only need to know what type of oil to use to replace it. Check that it is not a mechanical problem with the motor pump or wheels. Automatic pool cleaners are an integral part of pool maintenance.
