  1. Got the faceplate replaced. Good to go there. Filled and turned on---big crack on top of other motor--entire wet end needs replaced: LX Motor Model: WUA400-11 6500-387. Can you tell me which part I need?
  2. The faceplate arrived. Do I just need remove the 8 screws to get the faceplate off? I have them out...but it seems attached firmly still to wet end.
  3. Will do tomorrow morning. I am located in Yorkville, IL 60560
  4. I didn't see any cracks in the threads--although it wasn't perfect light conditions. I drained and then added some more water to see where leak is coming from. I think it's coming from the top side of the motor threads---back against the motor housing or the union doesn't reach. Do the black threads coming out of the motor housing come off the motor and there's a seal there? If not that could be where the crack is. I drew an arrow where the water appears to be coming from and then runs down on either side slow drip.
  5. I have a Jacuzzi J-145 Hot Tub. Over the winter in sub zero days, we lost power for a few hours. It kicked off the outdoor breaker and I didn't realize it until 4 days later. The tub was frozen. I drained it at -5. It's finally warm enough to refill to see if any damage. I put some water in and noticed on the pump AFTER the heater the outgoing union is leaking about a drip per second maybe quicker with more water in tub. I loosened and retightened. Still drips. The union has a recessed O ring that I imagine is supposed to stop the water when the 2 piped are pressed up against each other. My question: Anyone have experience with a fix for this? I believe I can just buy an Oring or by the union...which the union I am guessing would be a challenge getting free from the rest of the pipe do to the blue glue. Thank you in advance for your advice.
