which drive unit/impeller to buy for 9010.04A pump?

[Mr2KiEu]

can anyone help,

my skimmer stopped working. after cleaning and trouble shooting and research on RC, it still doesn't work. i believe i need a new drive unit/impeller?

i need to buy a drive unit, 2 plastic clips, and impeller for my skimmer. i believe it is the DOC skimmer 9011 model, but im not sure. the pump says its a TURBELLE 9010.04A model. i just wanted to make sure im ordering the correct part numbers.

thanks!

The best way to handle this now will be to send in the pump for repair. Unfortunately the drive unit you need is temporarily out of production, we should have them again in 2-3 weeks. The molds for some of the parts were worn out and had to be refurbished.

You have an older 9010 skimmer, all the parts of drive units are on hand, but no complete drive units and the main problem part is the bushing 3000.620, this mold is damaged and the resulting part fits too loose, as a result from what we have on hand the parts have to be carefully hand fitted and tested.

For future reference the drive unit is 3000.600, the impeller is 0235.120 and the plastic clips are 0235.140. Please send it in and we will handle the repair ASAP.

I would guess less than $30 if it is just as you describe. Just include a return address and phone number.
