20 Most Recent Rule 1800 H53SP-24 Swimming Pool Cover Pump Questions & Answers

I have the same issue. I pulled the pump from the assembly and bypassed the circuit board inside by creating a circuit with the 2 black wires...pump worked fine. Of course, it won't cycle on and off so my guess is that the pressure switch somewhere in the circuit board is bad. Rule has a great warranty as my current unit is a warranty replacement (2 years ago). Last unit had a stamped date code on it. I contacted tech support ( [email protected] ) and got a new one sent out. The replacement did not have a stamped date code, so my fear is that they won't replace this one. I picked one up online for $99 and free shipping. If I get resolution on the broken on, I will have on as a backup.
Good luck and if yours is less than 3yrs old, contact tech support.

yes this is true why do you think they give it a 3 year warranty not a bad pump but not a good one either for the cold

Could be a short in the cord somewhere. This will keep tripping the breaker. If you can check the socket and plug for loose wires or check for damage along the cord.

if your GFI trips soon after the spa goes through the purge cycle then you need a new heater.Yes the heater can develop a dead short and it causes the GFI to trip when power is sent to the heater.Rod @ US Parts Center .com
