6201 Problem

[Grace's Dad]

Pump keeps turning on for anywhere from 5 to 20 seconds, then cuts off for about 10 to 20 seconds. Have tried it in several outlets and on a different transformer. Other one works just fine on both transformers. Only been running a little over two months.

Likely the circuit board inside the motor is cracked, as it heats and expands the contact breaks and the pump dies, it then cools and the contact is reestablished. The only other possibility is lime build up or debris is triggering the normal safety cut off, you might just double check that everything is clean, it is unusual to get to this point in 2 months but with a very high calcium level or KH it could happen. Send in the motor for replacement.
