How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the pump before opening the control panel.

  • Inspect for moisture: Open the control cover and look for condensation or corrosion around the display. Allow to dry thoroughly if damp.
  • Check connections: Ensure the display ribbon cable is firmly seated in its connector on the PCB.
  • Operate by sound/feel: If the pump still responds to button presses, you may temporarily operate it manually, but consider replacing the control panel for full functionality.
  • Panel replacement: A failed display typically requires replacement of the entire Bestway control panel or PCB assembly.
