Symptom
Possible Cause
Solution
Reduced flow
Plugged input pump
Clean out thru-hull and strainer.
Close valve and clean debris from around impeller.
Discharge line plugged
with trash
Clean out hose by back-flushing.
Low battery voltage
Check battery condition and charge if necessary.
Kinked discharge hose
If hose is kinked, replace hose.
Wrong polarity
Check to see that brown wire (+) is hooked to positive battery terminal.
Partial airlock
Turn pump off for 15 seconds and then restart.
No water pumped
Wire connections
Make sure no wire connections are corroded through.
Blown fuse
Check fuse to see if it is the correct size. If fuse size is correct and fuse still blows,
check impeller through inlet opening to be sure it is not jammed or stuck with
debris.
Airlock
Backing up your boat may cause air bubbles which will stall the pump. Turn off
pump for 15 seconds to clear air and restart. Make sure pump is below water line
– check to make sure the discharge hose is running continuously upward.
Wire overheated,
melted insulation
Visual check is not enough – a slight pull on each wire will tell if the wires are still
joined. Check to be sure no joints are hanging down into the water.
Combination of jammed
impeller and wrong
size fuse
Be sure impeller is clear of debris and is free to rotate. Reduce fuse to proper
size. Replace damaged wiring.
