Ensure it is properly plugged in. * There might be no power to the outlet. Check the fuse or breaker. * The pump impeller could be jammed.

  If your Flotec Water Pump runs but doesn't empty the sink, here's what you can do: Check and clear the drain screen. Unplug the pump and clear the discharge line. Slightly open the shut-off valve. Also, unplug the pump and reduce the height or length of the discharge line, ensuring it's no more than 11 feet high. Finally, make sure the flow arrow on the check valve points away from the pump.

  If your Flotec Water Pump is running but failing to empty the sink, consider these possibilities: * The drain could be clogged. Clear the drain screen. * The discharge line might be clogged. Unplug the pump, then open and clear the discharge line. * The shut-off valve might be closed. Open the shut-off valve slightly. * The system discharge line could be too high or too long. Unplug the pump and reduce the height or length of the discharge line to a maximum height of 11 feet. * The check valve may be installed backward. Ensure the flow arrow on the check valve points away from the pump.

  If your Flotec Water Pump cycles on and off when the sink is full or has maximum water flow, the shut-off valve may need adjustment. This could be due to the shut-off valve not being adjusted properly or not installed at all. If the valve is not adjusted, refer to the section about adjusting the flow. If the valve is missing, unplug the pump and install a shut-off valve.
