Pump problem

[Craigyboy007]

HI a bought a new variflo pump as my old one wasn't drawing water up through the pipe fitted it yesterday was fine for while then tried today and the exact same problem has now occurred so it's defo not the pump however the leisure battery I use is low and sometimes the letter u comes up which I know stops it working so does any one know if this will be the problem or have you experienced the same problem please help

If your battery has low charge that will more than likely be your problem, you shouldn't let a leisure battery go lower than 50/60% and certainly never let one go flat!

No worries, hope you get it sorted :thumbsup:

From what I can make out are you drawing your water from the top of your tank rather than having the outlet at the bottom?

i had this problem, check you lid on your tank has a breather in it, if you undo the tank lid and you hear some hissing then you need a breather pipe on the tank lid
