Great white spins - Pool & Spa

Could you clarify the exact model? The picture shows a Polaris 380, and the Great White is built by Sta-Rite/ Pentair,(now sold under the name Kreepy Krauly), not Hayward.
Confused yet? Don't feel bad, I am too!

I know what the problem is, i had the same issue right out of the box. if you take the cover off the front you will find the battery. on the bottom of the battery is a 2-sided sticky tape to hold it in place, on that tape the is probably a pulled wire. theres red blue black and white (as well as a thicker red and black that lead to the battery. find the wire that is pulled and solder it to the correct part. for me it was the white cable which controlled the top blades. the helicopter spins because both set of blades should counter rotate and if one of the motors isnt getting power from pulled cable the helicopter will spin and flip. Hope this helped. email me at [email protected] if you need more help finding where the wires connect

The model number would help, ya know?

I have a splendide 2000 / WD802 pre m with round power buttons. It came with a used RV I bought. Everything would work on it except the drum wouldn't spin at all. After some research and messing around with it I was able to fix it! You remove the back panel and in the bottom left corner there is a white control module chip board mounted in by two screws. Remove the two screws from the back for access to fix it. Now the top plug on pin 1 and 2 shoud have 2 white wires connected to pin 1 and one baby blue wire connected to pin 2. I jumped these 2 pins together with a small length of wire and now our machine spins and works great! Be sure to used at least 6 inches of wire at least as thick as the rest of the wires and make sure that it is well connected. I recommend you take the crimps off the blue and white wires and re crimp them with the jumper wire crimped as well. If you don't have a good connection with a long enough wire it will get hot and possibly catch fire so it is very important to do this correctly. I hope this helps someone!!

plug a red and white rca cable into the back of the turntable and then plug the other end into your phono output at the back of the amplifier.then turn your selector on your amplifier to phono.wowla you should have sound

That indicates a bad motor.

Great!! Thanks for the followup -- I mean really, thanks!!

Wald, a couple of things here, see if they apply to your situations. I have seen the speed selector switch on GE models go bad and send voltage to both, the high and low windings in the motor. This causes the motor to get real loud and but usually kicks out the overload in the motor. Another issue is the current jogging between the high and low windings causing a chunka-chunka-chunka effect. GE put out a motor kit with a new harness and start cap to correct this problem. Open the front panel of your washer by pusing in on the two clips just under the lid and pulling the front panel towards you. You should see the harness with the start capacitor on the right if you have the latest motor. If you are handy with a meter, you can check the white and white/red wire to the motor. If you have a steady 120 volts to the motor during this jogging, replace the motor with the new kit. Catriver..post back.
