aquabot power supply not working

[edarling]

Sorry for the late reply, but one question...

Did the socket have three wires to it - black, green, and a thicker white one? If so, I'll try your method of repair. If not, I pulled the white wire out of something else, so I may be in trouble.

Lots of thunder storms over the past few days, so I would really rather get the aquabot moving the stuff off the bottom than using the manual vacuum. I hate that thing, but agree with a poster I read long ago who said she can vacuum the pool for an hour each week and enjoy it, but can not vacuum her living room in five minutes with any enjoyment

Socket only had 2 wires...I think they were black and green.

If you did disconnect another wire once you open it you will be able to see where it comes from.

Possibly your model is slightly different than mine and the white is a ground.
It should become obvious when you open it.

Good luck

Thanks. The white wire actually goes to the same as the green. When connected together the thing works again. Yeah! I love saving $150 with 10 cents of electrical tape!
