Turn on the robot for a maximum of ONE minute. SEE BELOW PHOTOS.ģ) Remove the robot from the water and lay upside down. If NO, check that the pin pressed into the axle to turn the drive gear is still there. If the plastic is gone, replace the drive shaft assemblyĢ) With the robot submerged, check to see if the drive gear is turning. Be certain the belts are routed properly over the stepped rollers.Ģ) Be sure the sideplate bushing that holds the drive shaft is intact.ģ) The drive shaft has a plastic coated end that inserts into the bushing. PUMP IS WORKING, POOL CLEANER WILL NOT MOVE.ġ) Look for a broken or loose slipping drive belt. May be checked with a continuity test on the multimeter. If the robot momentarily comes to life,Ĭheck the cord plug end for broken contacts.

The above photo is a 6 wire Transformer for Turbo Plus w/remote voltage test.Ĥ) With the robot submerged, wiggle the cord between the handle and the motor.

Voltage testing a two wire Aquabot Turbo transformer. If not, replace the reset switchī)Perform a continuity check on the fuse holder.Ĭ)Perform a continuity check of the on/off switch. Continuity should be there when the button is pressed.

NEVER do a continuity check with the power on.Ī)Perform a continuity check on the reset button by holding a probe on each terminal and holding in the reset. I say again, DO NOT PLUG IN the transformer with the case removed. Replace the transformer if no voltage is detected.Īquabot Troubleshooting-The transformer: case open and UNPLUGGED. Some transformers have a reset switch that must be pushed every time the machine is started.ģ) Check for voltage at the Power Transformer with a multimeter set to Vac 200. Photos of external timer transformer and bypassĢ) Press the reset (if equipped) on the Power Transformer and check the fuse. Photos of Internal timer transformer and bypass If BOTH pump and motor are not working, (Pool cleaner is not pumping water or moving) then the problem is most likely electrical Troubleshoot the power supplyġ) Reset your GFI outlet and test the outlet for power with a multimeter on the Vac 200 setting or plug a small appliance into the outlet. If they look like the wheel on the right (below), replace the wheel. Look at the wheel axles that sit in the bushings. Scroll down to ROBOT NOT MOVING for more information' Less likely but possible is a worn drive gear.

, all 4 bushings on the drive side.that's one each for the wheels and 2 for the drive gear that turns the belts and change the stepped rollers. If the wheels are moving intermittently, or in a halting manner, then change the If the pump can't pull enough water, your robot won't climb to the waterline. CHECK THE IMPELLER! Remove the cap on top of the robot and remove all hair or other obstructions. Your robot climbs because pump suction holds it to the wall while the drive system propels it up the wall.If wheels and treads are moving smoothly with NO wheel hesitations but robot won't climb.Ī.
