Cannot find problem with submersible pump
I have a 1 hp submersible pump that has suddenly stopped working. The pump provides water to my sprinkler system as well as all outside faucets to the house. Not sure of the brand of the pump but have a Mascontrol hydraulic pump controller and a Franklin Electric Control Box that houses a capacitor and relay switch. I have tested power from the controller to the control box, tested the capacitro and relay switch, all tested OK. Also tested the lines from the control box to the pump, also OK. Pump is only 11 years old. Controller should last 100,000 cycles and don't think I have even hit half that. All control equipment is in basement of house, so no corrosion visible anywhere. Is next step pulling the pump or have I missed something? Any help appreciated..
