It runs but makes a bit of a racket and it just cuts out when it feels like it.
Could this be the pump cutting out due to pressure switch ?
When it cuts out i turn it off/on and then it works fine until it cuts out again.
It's not to much of a problem at the mo, but i need to sort this out before it packs in all together.
Ideas anyone ?

is it turned on full .
 if u have a control tap on it n u turn it down then pump will make a noise .like its struggleing .

 is their a kink in the hose this will olso affect the pumps out put

[wightsurf]

No kink but there is a control tap. But i have never had this problem before using the control tap as i have a bypass that flows back into the backpack so it's not using the pressure switch.
Can i buy new pumps for this backpack do you know ?

johnhewitt.com sells them for about £30!

sometimes spade connectors on battery work loose.

can get air locks in pump, need to disconnect  hoses to pump.

as said check for kinks inside base.

I undid base and removed all plastic black pipes and put on 8mm microbore hose from yellow body to  pump and out of base.

I wish you could get a 12 volt battery that uses eyelet connectors so you can screw down connectors; as spade connectors fall off 

hope you sort out mate

[wightsurf]

Ok thanks all, i will get another pump incase it packs in and will take the lot to bits and have a poke about.
Cheers for the advice.

I've had problems with my yellow one yesterday. Loose spade connectors, blown fuse, pump hose to tank came off (it's too short for when/if you have to change the battery).

[lee_dewing]

If fuse blows take out and push brass fuse u shapes together, clip one inside of other to complete the connections (sorry if you already knew this/s obvious)


this will get working again, but don't leave like this when connect to mains to charge.

DON'T WANT TO SET YOU ON FIRE

change all internal hoses to microbore hose.

you can buy small lenghts from varitech.

If you wanted you could put male/female microbore connectors inside between body and base pump.

Female connector on body, otherwise any dregs of water will pi55 out
