Possible Causes

Tripped circuit breaker or RCD, Blown internal fuse in DAB control box, Loose or burnt power terminals, Failed DAB control module power supply

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Do not work on live circuits. Turn off the main breaker before opening any enclosures.

Steps to check:

  • Check breaker and RCD: Inspect the electrical panel for tripped breakers or RCDs. Reset once; if it trips again, stop and investigate further.
  • Inspect power cable and plug: Look for visible damage. Test the outlet with another appliance to confirm power is present.
  • Open DAB terminal box: With power off, remove the cover and check for loose, burnt, or disconnected wires. Tighten terminals and look for an internal fuse; replace only with the same rating.
  • Test voltage at pump: Have an electrician verify that rated voltage is present at the pump terminals when the breaker is on.
  • If voltage is present but pump is dead: The DAB control module or motor is likely failed and should be replaced.
