How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety: Turn off power and relieve pressure before loosening housing bolts or clamps.
- Tighten fasteners: Evenly tighten the Onga pump housing bolts or clamp band to ensure uniform compression.
- Inspect O-ring: Open the housing and check the large O-ring or gasket. Clean, lubricate, or replace if damaged.
- Check for warping: Inspect mating surfaces for warping or cracks. Replace the housing or volute cover if necessary.
Reassemble carefully and test for leaks. A dry housing is important to prevent motor corrosion.
