  Your Black & Decker Water Pump might fail due to several reasons: an air leak (check suction piping and valve glands, secure the lid on the pump strainer pot, and ensure the lid gasket is in place), insufficient water (verify the water level to ensure the skimmer isn't drawing air), a clogged pump strainer gasket (clean the pump strainer pot), or a defective pump strainer gasket (replace the gasket).

  If your Black & Decker Water Pump runs and then stops, it might be due to an over-temperature or over-current fault. Ensure the back of the pump is free from dirt and debris to prevent overheating. For an over-current fault, use compressed air to clean the pump; it will automatically restart after one minute.

  A noisy Black & Decker Water Pump could be caused by debris in contact with the fan (ensure the back of the pump is free from dirt and debris), debris in the strainer basket (clean the strainer basket), or loose mounting (check that the mounting bolts of the pump are tight).

  Nicole WalkerAug 23, 2025
  If your Black & Decker Water Pump runs without flow, the impeller might be loose (check that the pump is spinning by looking at the fan on the back of the Variable Speed Pump and that the pump impeller is correctly installed), there could be an air leak (check plumbing connections and verify they are tight), or the plumbing might be clogged or restricted (check for blockage in the strainer or suction side piping, and in the discharge piping, including a partially closed valve or dirty pool filter).

  Reduced capacity in your Black & Decker Water Pump can stem from air pockets or leaks in the suction line (check suction piping and valve glands, and secure the lid on the pump strainer pot), a blocked impeller (turn off power and clean debris from the impeller), or a clogged pump strainer (clean the suction trap).

  If your Black & Decker Water Pump fails to start, the issue might be due to missing mains voltage (replace the fuse, reset the breaker/GFCI), a locked pump shaft (check if the pump can be rotated by hand and remove any blockage), or a damaged pump shaft (replace the pump).
