Check the back of the pump motor wires are probably wet

On the normal vs-3050, you need to reset the whole unit. You do this by holding all 4 speed buttons for 30 seconds. After thi, shut off the power at the breaker. let sit for 2 minutes. Restore power and all setting are reset. I cant find any information about the SVRS model, but it should work the same way.

SOURCE: I have intelliflo VS+SVRS pool

There is either something blocking the suction side of this pump (blocked valve, strainer, strainer basket, leaves on main drain.) or the pump is not getting primed in the aloted amount of time. You can increase the priming time on the pump, or manually prime it, or just turn off the svrs feature temporarily until you get a good prime again. If you need the manual to figure out how to do these things, here is the link.

SOURCE: Pentair IntelliFlo VS-3050 & VS+SVRS Variable Speed Pump -leaks from housing

Which part of the housing?
The back against the motor or against the strainer basket housing?
Parts break down for the Pentair IntelliFlo VS-3050 here.
If leak is on the back of the housing - shaft seal. Or if the leak is on the front the replace O-Rings #10 or #23 in diagram.

No power coming on at pump

check breaker if on check at switch if power at switch check power at back of pump if voltage at pump sounds like either bad startup relay or bad motor

No power to unit how do you reset breaker to unit.

Turn the breaker all the way OFF, then Back ON. Also, you may have a GFCI receptacle that tripped, in which case just push in the reset button.

Motor will not come on everyday. comes on some days and then others, you have to start it manually. Replaced control panel 6 weeks ago and worked fine, now same problem again. Motor runs at lowest speed...

FIRST: When you shut the breaker off and then back on was it because the breaker was "tripped" ?

SECOND: Does the motor run "hot"? Feel the outside of the motor casing when its running to check. ****becareful - it may be really hot****

As soon as you get back to me with the information I can tell you what is going on and what direction to go in. Thank's

Jandy Stealth 2.0 tripping GFI after heavy rain. Been a week since storm.

Very possibly a bad GFI. GFI's are cheap and worth replacing if in question. also might try hooking up directly to another source and see if it trips a breaker
