We have a well that we use just for watering the garden, washing cars, etc. Last year, everything worked great. This spring when I used it, the pump would start when the pressure dropped to the 30lb mark and cut off at 50lb, just like it is supposed to, one time. However, after that, the pressure would just drop right on past 30 on down to zero without the pump coming on until no water came out. Then, about a minute or so later, the pump would come back on until the 50lb mark, water would flow, but then, right back down to zero and quit again. On and off like that continually.
Yesterday, I finally got around to changing the pressure switch, figuring it had to be that. I powered it back up, pump came on at 30lb perfectly. I figured I was a hero. Then, right back down to zero like before. A minute or so later, pump fires up again. On and off like before.
Any thoughts???
