I’ve had my Facelift Phoenix van mount for about 18 months and I think my pump is ready to die. Awaiting a call back from WCW on Tuesday to troubleshoot, but thought I’d ask for some advice on here as well.
Pump starting and stopping fine with power, but the flow needs to be higher to keep the previous pressure of flow - I don’t really have a way of “measuring” this, I just need to be closer to the glass to rinse and the water stream seems to be weaker (I have to set the controller to 50 to give me the same amount of water pressure as 40 did the day before), and my DE isn’t kicking in when the hose is detached or my univalve engaged on my poles. It’s also draining my leisure battery at a higher rate than it did before too.
Ive tried running the system on full (99 flow), which ends up just kicking the PS (voltage overload) sensor in and cutting the pump out.
So it is useable for the the time being, but it’s not working as well as it was. Other than lower pressure it’s not hitting air locks or anything else that would indicate a blockage in the system so I’m starting to think it’s a failed bearing?
Second, how easy are these to swap in and out with existing wiring and tubing? Doesn’t look too complicated but obviously I bought a pre build for a reason, and I don’t want to install a replacement and damage anything else.
Any thoughts would be welcome. Pretty gutted to be facing a £110 bill for a new one after only 18 months of service.
Thanks.
