I set up my wave engine last night. I connected an octopluse 4 and mp10. Got all the settings going. It started up ran for a while.
then I got pump locked excess current on the octopluse. It seems to go on and off.
anyone else have this issue? Thanks in advance.

Did you check the actual octopulse, in case something was obstructing the impeller? Make sure it spins freely, etc. That is the typical cause of “excess current”.
 
I started getting Pump stuck in closed error also. I took the pump out this morning and took it apart to clean and see if i could see anything. I will update when i get off of work.
