Flojet pump won't shut off?

[davep105]

My fresh water pump won't shut off? I checked the water box and there is plenty of water in there. I looked for any kind of leaks in the lines and couldn't find any. The pump isn't new, maybe it just needs to be replaced, going to call flojet with the model number to see what they say. Any info would be great.

Switch in the water box would be my guess.

Check valve in the pump is my guess. That causes the pump not to build up pressure and thus the pressure switch on the pump can't activate. Very easy fix.

Thanks for the suggestoins guys. Will it be ok to run that pump at my jobs or will it burn out from constantly running?

Running it will not hurt it.
