Is your eFlux wave pumps not responding or not operating as expected? This troubleshooting guide can help you resolve these
most common issues:
- LED pump display is not showing settings or responding to remote
- Pumps are not turning on/impeller spinning
To begin troubleshooting, its important to unplug all wire connections (including power and pump) and reconnect using the
following diagram & instructions:
1. Plug 24DC power supply into a GFCI approved outlet
and plug into DC pump power input.
Tips: * Ensure power supply is 24VDC NOT 12VDC
* If the powersupply has a green status LED light,
ensure status light is on. If the status light is OFF
and its plugged into power, it indicates a replacement
transformer is needed.
2. Plug remote IR sensor into microUSB Port#1 (furthest
to the right.)
Tip:* Ensure logo is facing upwards on microUSB
connector and plugged in all the way into PORT#1
3. Connect the LED display to microUSB Port #2
(second port from the right.)
Tip: * Ensure the display is plugged into PORT#2. This
port is second from the right and is indicated by
a small arrow molded on the silicone cover.
4. Remove clear plastic from bottom of handheld remote.
Point remote at the IR sensor and press the Blue Power
(on/o) button on the top right. Display should turn on/o.
Tip: * If remote still does not operate, replace the battery
(we include a spare one) and make sure the IR sensor
is correctly plugged into the manifold.
5. Install wave pump into tank and plug wave
pump into designated pump port.
Tip: * If pump impeller/propeller still does not spin, unplug
the wave pump and carefully disassemble. Turn the impeller
manually, ensure no dirt or detritus is inside the pump.
The impeller blade
should spin freely.
