Possible Causes
Clogged rinse nozzles, Blocked rinse line strainer, Low rinse pressure, Defective rinse solenoid or pump
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Turn off power and close the rinse water supply before removing rinse arms.
Step-by-step checks:
- Clean rinse nozzles: Remove rinse arms and clean each nozzle opening with a small brush or pick.
- Check strainer: Clean the rinse line strainer to restore flow.
- Verify pressure: Confirm that building and regulated rinse pressure meet CMA specifications.
- Test solenoid/pump: Energize the rinse solenoid or pump in test mode. Replace if not operating correctly.
When to call a technician: If rinse flow remains inadequate after cleaning and basic checks, a technician should evaluate the booster and internal plumbing.
