  If your Intex Swimming Pool Pump's filter motor won't start, there are a few potential causes. First, ensure the filter cord is plugged into a 3-wire outlet protected by a Class A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter, or RCD. If the GFCI/RCD circuit breaker has tripped, reset it. If it repeatedly trips, there may be an electrical defect requiring an electrician. Lastly, the motor may be too hot; allow it to cool down.
