Ecotech Vectra M1 starts and stops

[david p.]

Hi,

My vectra M1 return pump will start for a few second than stop.. than restart... than stop.
It is as if it started to 'prime' the line than for some reason it would stop.
The pump is bellow the tank, so about 3ft. It's 3 years old.
It always worked fine, it's controlled through my Apex.
I have cleaned the pump, everything seemed fine.
It is not noisy.
The controller shows green lights as usual.
I have tried to plug it in the wall instead of the Apex, no succes.

I'm out of idea what to look for.
Anyone has experience similar issue with a Vectra ?

thanks

dave

3yo

So basically out of warranty. In the event you can't remedy it, are you looking to replace it with another EcoTech or move to something else like a COR15 or Sicce SDC 7?
