Question:
I had a similar problem at the start of the season. Took the pump to my local dealer, who found a pool tile preventing the motor from turning. Saved me a new motor. Now, as my pool is older, and I have only been here 5 yrs, the wires were old, so in replacing them, my motors are working, but now my ploaris on the aux pump, is barely getting good flow to it to keep it moving. Does it matter if I have one pump hooked up to the electric one way and the aux motor to possibly the other electrical posts? Also, I am getting alot of de into the pool, collecting everywhere. I have had this before, but not as bad as this season. Could it be I put too much? I know this is a two part q, but never having had a pool before, and not having any of the booklets on my system does not help. Thanks for any advice you can offer. Ed in NJ

Hi Ed,
Have you tried to clean the Polaris strainer inside the wall fitting?
