How to troubleshoot a Crane Water Pump that will not run?
- C
  cevansAug 11, 2025
  If your Crane Water Pump isn't running, start by checking all electrical connections to ensure they are secure. An electrician should measure the current in the motor leads. If the current is within ±20% of the locked rotor Amps, the impeller is likely locked. If the current reads 0, the overload might be tripped. In that case, remove power, let the pump cool down, and then recheck the current. It might be due to a poor electrical connection, a blown fuse, a tripped breaker, another interruption of power, or an improper power supply.

What causes a Crane Water Pump to deliver insufficient capacity?
- C
  Charles AndersonAug 16, 2025
  If your Crane Water Pump delivers insufficient capacity, it could be due to incorrect voltage, excessive inflow, the pump not being properly sized, a restricted discharge, a check valve stuck closed or installed backward, a closed shut-off valve, a jammed, loose, worn, or damaged impeller, an airlock, or the pump running backward. Unfortunately, the provided information does not include specific solutions for these causes.

  If your Crane Water Pump cycles too frequently or runs periodically when fixtures are not in use, it may be due to a check valve that is stuck closed or installed backward, leaking fixtures, or ground water entering the basin. Unfortunately, the provided information does not include specific solutions for these causes.

Why does my Crane Water Pump shut off and turn on by itself?
- J
  Jeremy BrowningAug 28, 2025
  If your Crane Water Pump shuts off and turns on independent of the switch (and trips the thermal overload protector), it could be caused by incorrect voltage, excessive inflow, the pump not being properly sized for the application, a jammed, loose, worn, or damaged impeller, or excessive water temperature. Unfortunately, the provided information does not include specific solutions for these causes.

Why is my Crane Water Pump so noisy?
- J
  jensendebraSep 4, 2025
  If your Crane Water Pump operates noisily or vibrates excessively, it could be due to worn bearings, a bent motor shaft, debris in the impeller cavity, a broken impeller, the pump running backward, or piping attachments to the building structure being too rigid or too loose. Unfortunately, the provided information does not include specific solutions for these causes.
