Pool Cleaner Motor Not Working

Automatic pool cleaners are an integral part of pool maintenance.

Pool cleaner motor not working. Then place the meter probes into the plug on the motor end of the cable. Check that it is not a mechanical problem with the motor pump or wheels. 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. If the pump is on and you are hearing a humming noise it could be a bad capacitor.

Disaster strikes and time comes to a standstill if your pool cleaner stops working. If you disassemble it the oil inside runs out. First check to see if the pump is getting power and check your timer to make sure the pump is on. I really only need to know what type of oil to use to replace it.

The 35v motor has 4 capacitors to jump start 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. If the pool cleaner does not respond your motor is bad. The capacitor is what starts the pump by giving it a jolt of electricity.

The cleaner appears to be working fine for a while but then stalls without warning. The pool pump motor is not working or turning off while running. You often have to babysit it to make sure it finishes cleaning. I have an aquabot pool cleaner and pump motor stopped working.

Make sure the cord is not tangled around any part of the cleaner. 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. This is a common issue for many pool.
