Hello brilliant people!
We have a Pentair Superflo VS pump that was installed 6 weeks ago and had been working flawlessly since installation. Yesterday, however, we discovered a problem. In the morning our pool water level was low, so when I heard gargling in the skimmer at the programmed start time of the pump, I walked over to the pump, pressed the Start/Stop button to shut it off, and also turned off a wall switch I have for the pump so that someone else wouldn't start it later. After work I filled the pool. When I went back to start the pump, I first turned on the wall switch and noticed that the Power LED Indicator on the Control Panel turned on. I then pressed the Start/Stop Button, but nothing happened. Besides the Power LED Indicator, none of the other Control Panel buttons are responsive. I reset the circuit breaker last night, but the same happened: Power LED is on, nothing else works. I left the power to the pump on all night hoping that it might resolve itself, but it didn't.
I would really appreciate hearing from others who may have had this experience or ideas to fix it quickly and get the pump working again.
We purchased the pump from a pool company and had it professionally installed, so this should be under warranty, but we're hoping to get a fast answer from this community of knowledge!
Thanks in advance!
