Possible Causes

Defective motor control board, Damaged internal relay, Power surge damage to electronics

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the pump before any inspection.

  • Reset and test: Disconnect power for 10–15 minutes, then reconnect and attempt to start the pump. Observe if E97 appears immediately or only when starting.
  • Check for burning smell: Smell near the control panel and motor housing. A burnt electronics smell indicates internal board damage.
  • Visual inspection: If accessible, open the electronics compartment and look for burned components, cracked solder joints, or melted plastic.
  • Replace electronics: E97 typically indicates a non-user-serviceable internal fault. Replace the motor control board or complete pump motor assembly as recommended by Intex for your model.
