Normally indicative of a failed start capacitor. Phone 'INYO Pools' to check. They will confirm. The only other possibility is that it is jammed.
In this image the start capacitor is the black tubular cylinder on the left. you will see in the text that the capacitor gives the motor a boost to get it turning.
CAPACITOR - This Capacitor, referred to as a Start Capacitor, is tied directly to the Start Winding. This Capacitor together with the Start Windings provides an increase of 150 -175 % of torque to the motor shaft during its initial startup. When the motor reaches 2/3 to 3/4 full speed after a few seconds of operation, the start circuit will shut off. The start capacitor will generally be rated at 50-400 MFD and 125 or 250 VAC. If your motor won't start and hums when you try to turn it on, you probably have a bad Start Capacitor. For instruction on replacing this part see our guide on "
