CONDITION

COMMON CAUSES

A.  Pump will not start or run.

Check fuse, low voltage, overload open, open or incorrect wiring, open switch, impeller or seal bound 

mechanically, defective capacitor or relay when used, motor or wiring shorted. Float assembly held 

down. Switch defective, damaged, or out of adjustment.

B.  Motor overheats and trips overload 

or blows fuse.

Incorrect voltage, negative head (discharge open lower than normal) impeller or seal bound mechani-

cally, defective capacitor or relay, motor shorted.

C.  Pump starts and stops too often.

Float tight on rod, check valve stuck or none installed in long distance line, overload open, level switch(s) 

defective, sump pit too small.

D.  Pump will not shut off.

Debris under float assembly, float or float rod bound by pit sides or other, switch defective, damaged or 

out of adjustment.

E.  Pump operates but delivers little or 

no water.

Check strainer housing, discharge pipe, or if check valve is used vent hole must be clear. Discharge 

head exceeds pump capacity. Low or incorrect voltage. Incorrect motor rotation. Capacitor defective. 

Incoming water containing air or causing air to enter pumping chamber.

F.  Drop in head and/or capacity after a 

period of use.

Increased pipe friction, clogged line or check valve. Abrasive material and adverse chemicals could 

possibly deteriorate impeller and pump housing. Check line. 

  

ELECTRICAL PRECAUTIONS-

 Before servicing a pump, always shut off the main power breaker and then unplug the pump 

- making sure you are wearing insulated protective sole shoes and not standing in water. Under flooded conditions, contact your local 

electric company or a qualified licensed electrician for disconnecting electrical service prior to pump removal.

 

Submersible pumps contain oils which becomes pressurized and hot under operating conditions.

 

Allow 2-1/2 hours after disconnecting 

before attempting service.

In instances where property damages are incurred as a result of an alleged product failure, the property 

owner must retain possession of the product for investigation purpose.
