Thank you for posting your question here on Fixya.com. No, your model number starts with 's' which means it is a split phase design; no capacitors are present in a split phase motor. If the motor is failing to start and just hums the only part that you can replace that MAY be the problem is the internal starting switch. If the switch is not the issue it is the winding itself and not worth fixing. If this answer does not fix your problem, please comment with additional details prior to rating the answer. You may also contact me thru our website at www.arrowpools.net. Positive feedback is appreciated once your problem is solved!

Sometimes the smallest detail can be a golden nugget! S(or SP?) Split Phase AND NO CAPACITORS!! My pump (SP1515Z1BC) won't start just hums. Interestingly the centrifugal switch is open when motor is stopped. Apparently, the start winding is always connected and the run winding is connected when the centrifugal switch spins closed.
Thanks John!
