Possible Causes

Failed pump bearings, Foreign object in impeller, Swollen pump shaft from corrosion, Voltage supply issues

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off power and verify zero voltage before touching the pump.

  • Attempt to free shaft: Access the rear of the Everlast pump motor and try to rotate the shaft by hand or with a screwdriver. If it will not turn, the pump is seized.
  • Inspect wet end: Remove the pump wet end cover and check for stones, plastic, or other debris blocking the impeller.
  • Check for leaks: Look for water around the pump shaft seal, which can lead to bearing failure.
  • Replace pump: If the motor is seized or bearings are noisy, replace the complete Everlast pump assembly.
