Well, not a great start to the week - my heater in the van had for some reason stopped working. The water was not frozen and it was only -2=0 yesterday so thought it can not have been to bad. However, i went out to do first job with a newly charged battery (never used before for wfp) - and when i set up and turned on varistream + pump - got an error essage 'de' (ie'. a dead end has been detected).
Ignored ths as the varistream still worked and then realised that the pump must have frozen as no water was coming out. Before I did though - i ran the varisteram at full power (so the pump was on full power for 30 seconds or more0 - with no water circulating through it (just ice). Didnt see smoke or anything..
Tried all the connections - they all seem fine, but now varistream doesnt switch on - hence pump doesnt work.
Any ideas as to what I have done?? how much damage have i caused by not checking if the pump was frozen or not??
Cheers,
Rob
