I have well pump but no water. Found one bad fuse out of two and when I replaced it there was a spark and another blown fuse. Was checking out the control box, forgot that power was still being supplied thru the good fuse, and got a shock off the case of the closed control box. Once I removed power and removed the outside of the control box I don't see anything scorched.
The control box and pressure tank are underground with what I think is the pressure switch. Wires run from the control box to the pressure switch...? We got some very heavy and repeated rains and a decent amount of silt washed into the underground bunker where the pump components are kept and partially buried the pressure switch and the wires leading to it.
I am thinking that I need to remove all the silt around the wires and pressure switch. Is it possible the wires being buried are causing the fuses to burn? Or do I need to check the control box? I can see a wiring diagram inside it's case but no voltages...
Any comments on how to proceed?
