Why won't my BUSCH Water Pump start?
- CCarl OwensAug 11, 2025
If your BUSCH Water Pump isn't starting, several factors could be at play. First, ensure the motor is receiving the correct voltage by checking the power supply. Also, verify that the motor starter overload settings are appropriately sized according to the motor nameplate data. A blown fuse could also be the culprit, so inspect and replace fuses as needed. Inadequate wiring can cause voltage drops, so confirm you're using the proper wire size. If the pump or motor seems seized, try manually turning them after removing the fan cover; if frozen, separate the motor from the pump to check each individually, contacting Busch service if the pump is frozen. Lastly, consider whether the motor or coupling (CPL) might be defective, and replace them if necessary.
