Your impeller may have a locking bolt that goes through the center of the impeller. If it does, this has a reverse thread on it. If that is not the issue you may insert a skinny screwdriver into the vents under the motor to jam the fan, thus securing the motor shaft. You may carefully insert a screw driver into the impeller vanes to twist off the shaft.
Thanks for the advice. I managed to figure that out on my own, which enabled me to reuse the pump end on another motor I had laying around. Turns out it was a better fix cause the spare motor is a Pentair brand which is a much better one anyway. betterThanks for the advice.
