PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSES

SOLUTION

1. Pump will not prime.

a. Suction air leak.

b. No water in pump.

c. Closed valves or blocked lines.

d. Low voltage to motor.

Make sure the red filler plug and o-ring are clean and 
properly positioned. Tighten red filler plug. Tighten all 
pipes and fittings on suction side of the pump. Be sure 
water in the pool is high enough to flow through the 
jet housing.

Make sure pump housing is full of water.

Open all valves in system. Open pump and check for 
clogging of impeller.

Check voltage at motor. If low, pump will not come up 
to speed.

2. Motor does not turn.

a. No power to motor.

b. Pump jammed.

Check that all power switches are on. Be sure fuse or 
circuit breaker is properly set. Check motor wiring at 
terminals.

With power off, turn shaft. It should spin freely. If not, 
disassemble and repair.

3. Low flow.

a. No water in pump.

b. Closed valves or blocked lines.

c. Low voltage to motor

See problem 1.

4. Noisy operation of 
motor.

a. Bad bearings.

Check for noise when shaft is turned by hand. Motor 
will be very hot in bearing area when running. Replace 
bearing.

5. Motor runs hot.

These motors will run hot to the touch, however, this is normal. They are designed that 
way. Thermal overload protector will function to turn them off if there is an overload or high 
temperature problem. Excessive heat can be caused by:
a. Low voltage.

b. Installed in direct sun.

c. Poor ventilation.

Increase size of electrical wire. Be sure motor is 
operating on correct voltage.

Shield motor from sun’s rays.

DO NOT block motor ventilation openings.

6. Noisy operation of 
pump.

a. Air leak in suction line.

b. Restricted suction line due 
to blockage or under size pipe. 
Indicated by high vacuum reading 
at pump suction.

c. Foreign matter (gravel, metal, 
etc.) in pump impeller.

d. Cavitation.

Repair leak. Check suction pipe, red filler plug, and 
o-ring (See Problem 1).

Remove blockage or increase suction pipe size. Are all 
suction valves fully open?

Disassemble pump and remove foreign matter from 
impeller.

Improve suction conditions. (Reduce suction line 
length, reduce number of fittings, increase pipe size.)
