How long does it take for the pump to prime?i waited about a minute and never saw any flow at all, so I shut it off because I didn’t want to burn the pump out
Great question. Most pool pumps Should prime up within three minutes, given that there is no air leaks or plumbing issues on the suction side of the pump. Check to make sure that your pump lid gasket is properly in place, lube it up, and add water to the pump filling it until you see water enter the pipe and continue to fill for a minute. Put back on the lid and tighten it down hand tight. You do not need to over torque the lid, a firm hand tight is suffice. Also make sure that your water level is proper and not below the skimmer mouth. If all this is good and your pool pump does not prime, Contact your local certified pool contractor for assistance.
The voltage must be checked coming from the main unit to determine if the problem is the cell or ok’ing from the cord or main unit. How many years has this cell been in use for?
Great tip ... check the screen. Thanks!

Good info
My red light stays on and says check cell. Cleaned cell and the light is still on and same message. Do you think cell is bad or something else?
