If your GPI Water Pump switch fails to operate the motor, inspect for a blown fuse, defective wiring or switch, or improper electrical connections and replace as necessary. Also, the motor may be burned out, so inspect and replace it if needed.
Why does my GPI Water Pump motor not run?
If your GPI Water Pump motor does not run, it could be due to several reasons. First, the auxiliary temperature-limiting device might have tripped; turn the pump switch off, allow the motor to cool, and try again as the device resets automatically. Second, a fuse might be blown; inspect the fuse in the fuse holder and replace it if necessary. Third, the switch itself might be defective; remove the electrical cover plate and inspect the switch, replacing it if needed. Fourth, there could be a faulty switch or electrical connection; inspect for defective wiring, a bad switch, or improper electrical connections, and replace as necessary. Finally, the motor might be burned out; inspect it and replace it if needed.
How to fix low flow rate on my GPI EZ-8 Water Pump?
If you're experiencing a low flow rate with your GPI Water Pump, start by checking if the fuel tank is empty and fill it. Next, inspect the strainer for partial clogs and clean it as needed. Also, examine the suction pipe for any clogs or damage, removing the pump from the tank to inspect and clean or replace the pipe. Ensure the suction pipe has at least 1/2 in. (1.2 cm) clearance from the bottom of the tank. Check for system air leaks by tightening all pump fittings and connections, and inspect the suction pipe for leaks or damage, replacing parts as necessary. Lastly, ensure electrical connections are secure and check the battery voltage to rule out poor connections or low voltage.
Why does my GPI EZ-8 Water Pump motor stall when operating in bypass mode?
If the GPI Water Pump motor stalls when operating in bypass mode, it could be due to several reasons. The bypass poppet might be binding or damaged; remove the bypass poppet, spring, and O-ring, clean the cavity, and inspect and replace components as necessary. The wiring could be defective; use the instructions in the Installation Section to ensure proper electrical connections. The gears might be locked; remove the gear coverplate and inspect the gears and drive key, ensuring the gears turn freely with the key removed, and replace if worn. Lastly, the motor itself might be defective; inspect and replace as necessary.
How to prevent rapid overheating of my GPI EZ-8 Water Pump motor?
If your GPI Water Pump motor is rapidly overheating, ensure the fuel tank is adequately filled. The pump operation should not exceed the standard duty cycle of 15 minutes on and 30 minutes off. Limit bypass operation to 5 minutes. Inspect the strainer for clogs and clean as required. Remove the pump from the tank and inspect the suction pipe, clean or replace as necessary if it is clogged or damaged.
