    Complete loss of flow

    Bannerman and Valveman, you were a tremendous help. It WAS the small diameter line that sends pressure to the switch. It was filled with plain water, which had corroded the metal fittings on the ends. We had an awesome well company come out and replace it with a new hose, this one filled with...

    This makes sense. There is a black line that feeds the PS and gauge. We'll look into whether that's plugged before we start throwing parts and money at it.

    Gauge is at 40 when the flow stops. Gauge slowly falls, and when it reaches around 30, pump kicks on. If we shut off power at the breaker after the flow stops, the pressure still slowly falls. Eventually, it does hit 0. The way I understand it, the gauge is so WE know what pressure the switch...

    It comes up to 50psi, and the pump shuts off just fine. The pump comes back on once the gauge finally gets back down to 30ish psi. The problem seems to be that we have no flow between 40 and 30.
