I know this is the sps general.. but the tank is sps dominate :D

I flipped my breaker and turned it back on. Now my cor-20 is only running at a slow trickle. This has happened once before and it magically fixed its self..

Called apex support. Guy I spoke with said he's never heard of this before..

Anyone have any help for this??
 
Have you checked the IQ setting to see what the max percentage is at, or are you running it as a stand alone?
 
Sounds like maybe a good cleaning is in order

It's not running on stand alone mode. I have tried running it at 20%, 70% and 100%. Water comes out of the return on all 3 setting, but obviously at a very slow rate, about 5%.

This means it is not a cleaning issue (because it was working just fine before being turned off earlier today) and that there is another issue.
 
Yeah sometimes when impeller or impeller cavity is dirty it stalls the pump. Easy enough to clean to rule that out
 
Can you show us what your Cor20 Schedule (also show IQ setting) and Cor20 panel look like right now? I've attached pics of mine from Apex Fusion website.

I was able to fix this by going into Tasks and "add or configure a Cor pump". After going through the set up it worked fine again. I have no idea why it got screwed up though.

Schuby, the rpm and temp read what it would normally would for me and it said it was on 70%, even though it was only a trickle. It is fixed though for now after re configuring. Thanks for the help guys!
