My Water Ace R201A submersible pump trips out after running about 45 seconds, resets then repeats the short cycle. It draws about 15 amps on each of the two lines so I assume the motor is overloaded? We are temporarily on city water until this gets fixed.
I've pulled it out of the well and separated the motor from the pump. I want to take the pump portion apart to see if something is wrong inside but cannot find how to do it. There are no screws showing. I've tried to unscrew the ends but they do not budge, at least not with the moderate torsion I applied with pipe wrenches.
Are these throwaway pumps or is there a way to get them apart?
I installed the pump less than two years ago only to have it act up after
only 1 1/2 years. The warranty is for one year so I guess I'm stuck with the thing.
Thanks for any help!
