Broken pump, any suggestions?

[CaveChest]

Hey yo.

I think the pump in my AG is all broken, it was working this morning then just stopped...i don't really know whats going on but everything else works fine. Are there replacement pumps that could be put in manually or will i just need a new AG?

Any help would be good.

thanks in advance

I assume your AG is set to "Salad Greens," which has the pump on full time, whereas the other presets turn off for several hours per day. Just asking in order to make sure the pump is truly broken.

I thought mine was brokem twice and it wasn't. It may just be in the "off" cycle. You can call the folks at AeroGarden. They will walk you thru it and reset it and will prolly even send you a new pump FREE if that's the problem.

try cleaning your pump out..... mine quit working for a bit and i figured out how to gett to it and cleaned all the roots out works like a champ!

What setting? info for answers! Check and see if the roots are inside if so gently pull them out. first put setting on salaad greens!

Hey guys

Thanks for the posts, but it turns out the pumps ok...
It was the connection from the AG to the pump (the little copper bits inside the lamp) that were causing the problem. They were clogged up and no power was getting through...

thanks for the help anyway, sorry for wasting your time
Peace
