Sta-Rite pool pump timer or built-in schedule does not start the pump at the programmed times.

Safety: Use dry hands when operating the control panel; no need to open electrical enclosures for basic programming.

• Set correct time: Enter the Sta-Rite pump menu and verify the current time and date. Correct if necessary.
• Review programs: Check each programmed run period for correct start/stop times, days of week, and enabled status. Delete conflicting or overlapping programs.
• Factory reset schedules: If behavior is erratic, clear all programs and re-enter them from scratch.
• Observe operation: After reprogramming, monitor the next scheduled start. If the pump still fails to start, the internal clock or memory may be faulty and the control board may need replacement.
