5.2.4 Built-in Filtration Problems

Problem

Probable Causes

Corrective Action

A. Power cord is not plugged in or circuit

breaker is tripped.

A. Verify that the power cord is fully

plugged in. If so, verify that circuit
breaker is not tripped.

B. Pump motor has overheated causing

the thermal overload switch to trip.

B. If the motor is too hot to touch for

more than a few seconds, the
thermal overload switch has
probably tripped. Allow the motor
to cool at least 45 minutes then
press the Pump Reset Switch.

Filter pump won't

start.

C. Blockage in filter pump.

Test: Close the drain valve and pull
the filter pan out from the fryer.
Activate the pump. If the pump motor
hums for a short time then stops, the
probable cause is blockage of the
pump itself.

C. Pump blockages are usually caused

by sediment buildup in the pump
due to improperly sized or installed
filter paper and failure to use the
crumb screen. Call FASC.
