I am a well novice. Gauge is reading 0 PSI. When I turn on the pump breaker it kicks the pipes and I can hear the pump. I thought the pipes might be clogged because I have a ton of silt (and iron), so I disconnected the pvc pipe right above what I think is called the cap (on the ground where the water pipe and electric go down into the well). Same situation, the water pipe kicks when I hit the breaker but nothing comes out. I thought maybe it lost its prime, but that doesn't really seem possible with a submersible. The only other things I can think of is that the pump is turning on but somehow otherwise not functioning or that it is sucking too much silt and somehow clogged things further down.
Any ideas? Thanks in advance
