Hello All,
I hit the reset switch on the pump box. When I then turn the pump back on, it immediately pops and then I saw and heard a spark come from the wiring going into the electrical conduit next to the box.
I did get a new control box 2 years ago and was told at that time that my pump was weakened due to lightning. The pump was drawing more amps than it should. But, they at least got me water by putting in a new box. You could see the burn marks at that time on the original controller. The pump is a 1.5hp pump.
I have an irrigation system and the water stopped during watering at some time during the early morning hours. What can I do to help diagnose this? Thank you.
