How to troubleshoot ICON NXT Pro Controller when the pump will not start?
- CChristopher TorresAug 14, 2025
If your ICON Controller's pump isn't starting, first ensure the controller's ON/OFF button is activated and the GREEN 'POWER' LED is illuminated. Check that the controller isn't in error mode, indicated by a RED 'LACK OF WATER' LED or the display showing -P-, -A-, OL, UL, PF, or Pr. For 'Controller Only' options, verify the controller-to-pump wiring. Also, ensure the water column above the controller doesn't exceed the cut-in pressure. If none of these resolve the issue, internal electronics may have failed due to a lightning strike or power surge.
