How can you wire a 2 speed motor to run only on high
You dont really need to change anything ... just keep it in high speed. If you really want to remove the switch, remove the cover, follow the wires and comlete the circuit that is for the high speed setting. You will need a volt meter with contunity setting to complete this task.

Any pool store in your area should have a 201 mechanical seal available. If not, try looking under pump repair for a shop in your area. It is a very common seal and is interchangeable with the Hayward super pump seal so it should not be hard to find.

Can I save money if I buy the pump online and then
You probably can but don't. Use the online price to negotiate a better deal with the installer, then if it goes wrong they can't say "you bought the pump so it is not my responsibility" etc. Better to let the installer give you a comprehensive warranty.
I hope I have been of help but please do not hesitate to ask if you have any further questions.

Take the two sections apart, remove the seal and put the two sections back together.You will be able to see any gaps if they are warped. A straight edge might work too. Also inspect the surfaces for any cracks. The can get a hairline crack if the sections are tightened to tight, and the seal is out of the grooves. If all is ok, silicone the seal, silicone the grooves, then put the pump back together. This will help keep the seal in place. I just use a pool/spa sealer like Leslies Pool and spa lubricant.

Is the pump 120V or 220V? 120V you will need a 20 A breaker. 220V you will only need a 15 A breaker.
My pump is 3 years old. I replaced the shaft seal
Sounds like the motor is not turning. Check your impeller and motor to see if it spins freely by hand.
If not then you either have something stuck in the pump or the bearings are bad. If it is freely spinning, check your start capacitor

You may have been running it on the wrong voltage for 3 years especiallyif you feeding it 120 volts to a 220 setup. Assuming it is getting the right voltage and it clicks off and on you run winding is bad so the start winding cliicks on to bring it up to run speed opens the switch but the run winding isnt there so it repeats the process forever till it fails.
