No water at fixtures 1. Error encountered
2. No power
3. Water line obstructed
4. Faulty pump
5. Drain or relief valve open
6. Leak in plumbing
1. See Error Code section for possible causes.
2. Check circuit breaker and wiring.
3. Ensure shut-off valves are open, check filtration equipment (if
installed).
4. Repair or replace as necessary.
5. Ensure valves are closed.
6. Check piping.
Low water pressure 1. Pressure setting too low
2. Water line obstructed
3. Faulty pump
4. Pressure setting out of range
5. Incorrect wiring
1. Adjust pump cut-in and cut-out setting as described in manual.
2. Ensure shut-off valves are open, check filtration equipment (if
installed).
3. Check well pump.
4. Reduce pressure settings within pump capacity.
5. Check pump wiring.
Intermittent water interruption 1. Tank precharge too high
2. Recurring error
1. Adjust air pressure 2 psi below cut-in setting.
2. See Error Code section for possible causes.
No pressure (pump runs) 1. No pump prime (jet pumps)
2. Failing well pump
3. Incorrect wiring
1. Prime pump and restart.
2. Repair or replace as necessary.
3. Check pump wiring.
Display will not illuminate 1. Circuit breaker or switch off
2. Faulty or loose wiring

(Display illuminated)
1. Error encountered
2. Faulty pump
3. Failed control
4. Pressure sensor line blocked
5. Loose or faulty wiring
1. See Error Code section for possible causes.
2. Repair or replace as necessary.
3. Replace.
4. Remove and clean.
5. Check pump wiring.
Pump will not shut off 1. Pressure setting too high
2. Pump water line obstructed
3. Pump problem
4. Failed control
1. Decrease pressure settings until pump an reach cut-out.
2. Ensure no shut-offs are closed between pump and Well-X1
™
.
3. Inspect well pump condition and sizing if pump cannot reach a
reasonable cut-out setting.
4. Replace.
Sediment or discoloration in water 1. Poor water quality 1. Install proper treatment equipment, drain and flush tank per
instructions contained in this manual.
Rapid pump cycling 1. Differential too narrow
2. Improper precharge
3. Failed tank
1. Check sizing for intended operating range or spread differential
to obtain proper pump run time.
2. Adjust air pressure 2 psi below cut-in setting.
3. Replace.
Relief valve discharges 1. Over-pressure condition
2. Faulty relief valve
1. See "Pump will not shut off" above.
2. If pressure is below 100 psi, relief valve should not open.
Replace if faulty.
