Also question is, why is my Hayward pool pump tripping breaker?
Pump Trips the Breaker When the breaker trips when trying to turn on the pump, most likely the motor shaft is frozen, the impeller is stuck, or the capacitor has blown. In some cases, it can be a bad breaker, especially one that is used often to turn the pump on and off.
Similarly, how do I fix my pool pump? Remove the pump lid and clean any debris from the pump basket, then fill it with water using a garden hose. Once done, replace the pump lid and set the pool return to open on the diverter valve so water can return to the pool. Turn the power back on and check to see that the water flow has returned to the strainer box.

- Turn On The Filter System.
