I have an older 6095 that has stopped working. When power is applied to the pump it rotates one time and then stops. I’ve cleaned it and tried swapping the power supply with a known good power supply and it’s still doing the same thing. What can I do to get it going again?

Assuming it is clean and the drive unit moves freely on the shaft, the motor has most likely failed. They have a 2 year warranty and should generally last around 7 years as that is the life span limitation of the capacitors. If it is less than 2 years old if you send it in we will replace the motor, the motor block 6095.100 can also be ordered as a spare part.

Yeah it is clean and the shaft moves freely. It’s definitely over two years old.
