Shurflo Backpack not working
« on: March 17, 2010, 04:19:47 am »
I got my Shurflo backpack out yesterday as I need it for a job in a weeks time, we've not used it for a while so just wanted to check it out.

Charged the battery up and put it together..........nothing!!!

Any ideas, it looks simple enough but I can't get it to run.

i had a backpack come from wcw same problem open it up apparently someone told me the a wire to the battery is disconnected for transit-storage
this was the case also check all wiring connections i also had a loose connection to the charging unit

There's a fuse mounted on top of the battery on mine.  Might be worth checking your fuse etc.

disconnect the wires to the pump and place them straight onto a battery if the pump runs its the pc board that has gone
