Older 2hp Franklin Electric 3 wire (black, red, & yellow) motor in a 60' 4" well. A week ago, we pulled the pump and motor because it stopped working. Determined the motor to be fine, so we replaced the pump. Worked fine for a few days and then stopped again. Control box is still clicking when it's turned on like it did when everything was working. There is no hum at the well like there was when just the pump went out. Voltage at well seal (with pump disconnected) is 123 volts on the 3 individual wires. Could I twist someone's arm to explain how to check the wires and pump down in the well without pulling it out once again. Meaning, needing to know how to check for problems from well seal to the motor. Please don't assume I know what you're talking about. ...because I probably don't. I'm not stupid, just in an area I'm not familiar with. Thanks in advance for the help.
