Need to replace my Century motor

You can use the EVC165 to replace the motor on your Hayward Super Pump VS. The control is different from your current Hayward motor. The EVC165 has a single button control. There is no digital display. If you'd like the version with the digital display, the replacement motor assembly is part number SPX2603Z1VSPE,

Motor needed to be replaced

Written on 4/24/2025 by Guest

My motor did not have specs, but I knew the type it had started, it was a Hayward replacement. So I found the right flange setup.
I turned off the power and removed the cabling from the motor
I removed the old motor by first taking off the pump head
Next, I removed the pump by holding the shaft and spinning it off.
I had to remove the frame.
I worked backwards and attached the new motor to the frame and then the pump.
I had to use a screw driver from the back to hold the motor from spinning while I spun the pump impeller back on.
Buttoned all up and rewired.
