because water not high enough

contact rule they have a 3year warranty

so cut repair and tape and fix if its near water side use silicon make sure dosent hit water

water has to be high enough its going through a self test if the blue leaf guard is not undr atlest 3inches of water that's what will happen

put compressed air in the discharge or float switch defective probably froze to death

cracked impeller probably dropped or froze to death

motor seized how over the winter the discharge hoses freezes thus no discharge pump burns out motor that is

don't throw a way

it is contact rule also theres a date code burned on the side they give it a 3 year warranty

yes this is true why do you think they give it a 3 year warranty not a bad pump but not a good one either for the cold

good pump its a rule by the way a lot of times the automatic goes bad cause the hoses frezes and the pump goes bad

your stone or jets are plugged. if stone try to clean it. if jets try to run needle in jets. it sounds plugged up. check lines. if that does not work diaphragm had a hole in it or the push rod is bent or connectoe is loose or worn out. check these as long as motor works it is usually one of these. good luck

Your float switch is stuck and/or the hole that lets water in and out is plugged. Clean the switch.

The sensor that checks for h20 every 10 seconds may not be working properly. First make sure the pump is unplugged then clean the pump making sure the impeller is free never do this with it plugged in. tap the pump lightly with a screw driver handle to make sure the bearings are not frozen if it still does not work send it back to the manufacturer

go to buy pool parts on line dot com they have them

because it doesnt know or care if there is water in it. there is no flow sensor to cut the electrical supply. these pumps are either on or off.

Could be a short in the cord somewhere. This will keep tripping the breaker. If you can check the socket and plug for loose wires or check for damage along the cord.
