Possible cause Solution WARNING:

Only qualified electri- cal service personnel should examine and correct problems that require opening the unit's electrical enclosure or checking electrical current to diagnose the cause of a problem.

Is the motor overload faulty or set incorrectly?

Is the pump working properly?

Disconnect the power and open the electrical enclosure. Verify that the overload is set to trip at the proper amperage, which should not exceed the FLA. Manually trip and reset the overload. If the problem contin- ues, replace the overload. See
