when the pump kick out the water without the float plugged in do that mean the float need replacing?

The float is a switch which turns the pump on when the water level is at the upper limit, when properly adjusted, and off when when the water level is at the lower limit. If the float is disconnected from a pump which requires the float to be plugged in to operate, and the pump is still running, the float appears to be bypassed, and you should check your wiring to the pump.

I had the same problem and the person who takes care of my pool said it would need to be replaced. He told me it would cost less for me to order it through Amazon than having him change it for me. The new unit is super easy to change. I just popped the old one off the wall. Look how it is plugged in and do the exact same thing with the new one. Mine now works and looks great.

The fitting has nothing to do with the problem. The problem is internal. I believe it is the diagram which will not let the pump shut off once it is activated. Once the water is drained and the float lowers/returns to the normal "off" position, the water never turns off.

If you mean that the water keeps coming out and overflowing the bowl then check that the float is not sticking on tank plug. If you mean the pump keeps going and shooting water into the bowl that's what it is supposed to do.

Yes the pump does have a float sensor that only turns on when the pump fills with water.

It could be that you didn't fill the float with water by holding it underwater for a minute or two when you 1st installed it. That was barely mentioned in the instructions but sounds like something that would assist in moving the float down.

Yes you can. If your current pump has a switch on it that can be replaced. You will need to attach the float to the barrel being filled, position it near the top of the barrel. The cable from the new float will need to run back to your water pump and connected to the old float switch cable. You will probably have to make 2 splices to the cable and put heat shrink tubing over the cable splices to ensure they are water tight.

Could be. Ensure there is fuel in the bowl. Also make sure the float is not sticking. Check for vacuum leaks.

This could be a problem with the on/off switch on the handle or the main motor. If you have the main switch on and water is spraying out the bottom from either pump (there are separate wash and rinse electric water pumps) then there's a problem with the motor. If not then it could be anywhere between the electrical outlet and the motor (plug, cord, switch or internal wiring)

Clogged up....take the cover off the front and clean it out with running water, if you haven't fried the motor (you'll hear it running) it will start pumping again.

A couple of things come to mind. Is the panel dirty and need to be wiped? The pump may be working but the intake could be clogged and needs to be cleaned out? Is the pump submersed fully? I found my pump not working (but I can't see mine) because it was above the water line, adding water solved it.

So I put in a backup sump pump (liberty 24v marine battery kind), if my sensors or wiring fail. I mean, your bottom one is submerged in water, so why not the top wiring too. Same diffetence. Get a backup to be safe. Pumps fail. Power fails. Floats and electronic sensors fail. 500 is cheap insurance for a backup system. You can install it, trust me.

I don't know if an out of balance condition could affect the pump but it is possible. If it is leaking at all, then replacing it is imperative. It will only get worse. Try searching the internet for a video on how to replace it. Then you will have a better idea of all the affected parts.

There is a float on the bottom, so it needs to be mounted so it can know when to pump out the water.

I own this and have found to fix must replace the whole unit.... This summer2014 will be our second replacement in two years. It was suggested to me to bypass thus pump and draw water thru. But use a sand filter... Might try that instead

mine also was missing 2 plugs, but I had older floats from another company and cut them off. I floats are very hard to inflate and one is always losing air. I'm waiting for them to completely fail. I will not purchase anything else from this company.

It's just the pump, the wiring harness will b on existing sending unit or on a new one if u had to replace that aswell.
