Current slide {CURRENT_SLIDE} of {TOTAL_SLIDES}- Save on Pool Cleaners & Vacuums
So anybody dealing with suction-side pool vacuums know that they can be slightly annoying and need alot of baby sitting to keep them on task. My hayward nav is 10 years old, and i've never done anything to it, after researching replacing it with a newer unit i was blown away by the cost of some of these robots, suction side as well as the bag units that bypass your pools filter, while the latter of the two would have been my choice, the cost was staggering, given the expense of keeping my in ground pool clean and running properly, i always do everything myself, opening & closing, etc. After reading up on the issues i was seeing with my Navigator, it sounded like i needed some parts replaced, rather then buying i brand new unit. First off the side flaps were shot and rather then adding another layer of duct tape, i got a new pair, then after testing the turbine, i got a new A- frame kit, the vacuum definitely moved faster, but its biggest issue of getting stuck every time it reaching the walls remained, that is until i replaced the gearbox, now it's like brand new again. It turns on a dime, and requires no baby sitting to clean my pool, i would highly recommend this part, and given the price of the other items mentioned, replace them all, you'll be shocked how well if performs again.

My Hayward vacuum was going in circles. I checked out the problem from many comments posted and bought this new gear box. After installing it I still had the problem so I had my local pool store check out my installation of the gear box. Everything was OK there, but they did say that my continued problems might be that my pods were worn out also. So I ordered new pods off eBay as well. Now all is well and I have a clean pool again just in time for Phoenix dust storms and Monsoon rains in summer.

These pool vacuums are really expensive so when a part wears out, is great to be able to replace just the parts you need. This was brand new at a good price.

This is, or appears to be, the OEM part. As such it properly fits and corrected the 'steering' problem my Hayward had - going only one way in circles. It's an easy repair and requires only the removal of a few screws. There are Youtube videos if further assistance is needed.

Save yourself a ton of money and replace this part yourself. It's an easy fix and takes about 15 mins to complete. Don't spend the unnecessary money to pay someone to do this easy fix!
