Please note that capacitors store an electric charge and should be handled with the utmost caution and care. We do not encourage handling a capacitor without any type of safety measures in place and highly recommend contacting a professional service company for repair/replacement. For those that feel comfortable changing the capacitor here's >How to replace a pool pump capacitor. In order to match up the capacitor you will need more specifications on the capacitor. You will need to match the voltage, the MFD, whether or not the capacitor is a >run or >start type and the actual dimensions of the capacitor body.

We may carry the capacitor however we will need to know the motor model, part or catalog number to cross-reference that for you.

My pump has been slow to start for a while. Now it clicks and hums for a few seconds, but does not start. The motor shaft turns freely. It seems that the start capacitor would be the problem. Your guide says that if the start capacitor was bad, there would be visible physical damage, but I don't see any. Can the start capacitor still be the problem? I'm not sure if my pump has a run capacitor - it doesn't have a hump on top. Also, is this the right replacement part for my pump (see images)?
Hi, Alex. Yes, the capacitor could be the issue. You can use our How to Test a Pool Pump Capacitor guide to test your capacitor to make sure it's bad before replacing.
