My pool rover only goes in one direction. Why?

Try this: Take the Rover out of the pool and lay it down, wheels down. With your garden hose, shoot a strong jet of water into the impeller opening, alternating sides, 3-4 times each side. There's probably some material stuck in there.

they usually do unles its et the other way.. if its working leave it alone..

I had this same problem. I took the Rover out of the pool, removed the filter, turned it right-side-up and shot a strong blast of hose water into the outlets where the water exits to propel the Rover. Do both sides over & over a few times. That should do it.

Hello Kathy,

I have the same problem. Do you already have a solution?

This happens to me when I don't take care of the cord according to the instructions. By it's very nature the Rover likes to twist its cord. Are you certain you are removing all the twists in the cord before you start cleaning? Also, are you swapping the pin on the moveable axle every time you clean? Swapping this pin changes the direction from clockwise to counterclockwise (and vice versa) and keeps the cord in reasonably good condition.

This has happened to me several times. Hair can get caught on the impeller. This causes the flap inside the jet to not close completely. Unplug the unit, remove two screws off the jet exhaust and gently remove the hair.
