Hi I have the pf-20-2n22x pump one of the capacitors has a huge hole burnt into it. Is this normal? I can't find out what it's rating is. The other capacitor is a 45uf and seems fine any advice please?

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

Have to replace the capacitor if there a hole in it or damaged in any way.

[@Leo-gt1bx]

@@VIPPoolsandSpas The problem is that I can not read the spec of it as it is melted.

[@VIPPoolsandSpas]

@@Leo-gt1bx crap. Can't help you with that. Even if the motor part is burnt, that would mean it's most likely a windings issue. Need new motor

​@@VIPPoolsandSpas I have an Ultra 9000 120V 1HP 4.5A Spa Blower. The board tests are perfect at J3 but Blower does not run. Jumper was set to 240v...I changed it to 120V but still no luck! Wouldn't the thermal switch protect it when it was connected to 240v or motor can still damage?
