APEXEL Stopped Working

[Gary Ellis]

Apexel doesn't work. No lights on it and when I turn the power off and back on the energybar relay clicks and it come on and 5 seconds later the relay clicks it off. I have cor15 pumps. So I'm screwed.

This is why I'm going to throw out the Apex. When it stops working my tank is in jeopardy and you can never get help. Cor15 pumps only work when apex is running.

You could do some basic troubleshooting and try to isolate the problem, then find a way to deal with it. The issue is likely electrical and I'd start by unplugging those cors first.

I've done all that. I have unplugged everything but the energybar and brain. I plugged a lamp in one of the energybar outlets and when I unplug the energybar from the outlet and plug it back in the lamp goes on and then goes off after 5 seconds. I can hear a click in the bar when I plug it in and then another click when the lamp goes off.

So did you power the brain from a separate power supply?

Don’t use COR pumps?

No, how would I do that and for what reason?
