Record the symptoms and visible messages. Use a qualified technician for electrical diagnosis and avoid repeated resets.

Describe what happens

Does the pump show no response, display an error, hum without starting or start and then stop? Write down the exact behaviour. If there is a screen, photograph the message before it is cleared.

Also note the last time the pump worked normally and any recent service, power interruption or equipment change.

Keep electrical diagnosis with a professional

Do not open a motor, controller or electrical box to experiment. Ask a qualified technician to check the supply, controls and equipment against the model instructions.

If there is a burning smell, visible damage, smoke or water in electrical equipment, keep the equipment isolated and request professional help.

Separate the fault from the replacement decision

A pump that will not start does not automatically need complete replacement. Ask the technician to explain the fault and the proposed repair or replacement scope.

If a part is required, confirm its reference against the actual model. If a new pump is proposed, review the system requirements and connection details again.

Prepare a support enquiry

Send COREX the model, nameplate photograph, symptoms and any technician findings. Add your country and city. The team can receive documentation and part enquiries without assuming a diagnosis from a short message.
