How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Repeated cycling can damage the motor; turn off power until diagnosed.

  • Check sensors: Inspect and clean any flow or pressure sensors connected to the controller.
  • Inspect wiring: Ensure all low-voltage control wires are secure and not shorting.
  • Bypass automation: Disconnect external automation and run the pump directly from the Hurlcon controller to isolate the cause.

Persistent short cycling usually requires controller or sensor replacement by a technician.
