High speed lift seems to work fine. What could be the problem?

Contactor chattering would be cuased by a low voltage situation. Monitor the voltage,at the contactor coil terminals,and see if you are losing positive(+) or negative(-) voltage. Then trace that circuit back to what controls it.

I should clarify. The pump contactor is cycling in and out. Could this be a pressure switch or were you thinking the pump was running all the time?

Hi Terry. Have you tested the relief pressure setting? Possible bad pump.

Fact of the week
The use of "hello" as a telephone greeting is attributed to Thomas Edison. He is said to have suggested it as a simpler alternative to other greetings, such as "Do I get you?" or "Are you there?".
