Power Pole troubleshooting

I have a 2015 10' Blade with C-Monster pump. The pump has power and is receiving signal from the remote, however, the pump does not run in either direction. I contacted power pole a couple weeks ago and they said to take the top off the pump and do something with the wires I think. They said if the pump ran then it was the circuit board and they would send me a new one, but if the pump did not run it was the motor and they would replace the entire pump. I was driving at that time and did not write down what he said. I had time today to check it, but can not remember what he said to do and they are closed on Saturday. Does anyone know what to do to check it or have had the same issue and remember what I am supposed to do?

Thanks
Gary

My Power Pole stopped working one day on the water. This happened before but it magically started working again. Now it seemed dead for good. Upon inspection, it seemed that the pump unit had no power. On a whim, I pulled the fuse and rubbed the ends of the fuse clean with a rag. Bingo! Power Pole started working again.

Power Pole

Their service is topnotch! They will walk you through the troubleshooting on the phone if you have the tools and VOM meter and you call before closing. They sent me a new circuit board and I replaced the unsealed fuse holder and it is ready to go. I know they are costly but I still appreciate good service when I get it!

Hello everyone. My 2021 PowerPole blade 10' stopped working. My PowerPole is out of warranty. I did some testing with the board and was able to repair it. Would anyone be interested in a repair service for "older" PowerPole circuit boards?

This is the model of the board I fixed.

C-Monster 2.0 Circuit Board For 10' Blade (2017-Later)

Thanks

Just FYI… I had a similar problem last October. I bought a new circuit board. It didn’t help. I called Power Pole and asked if they could overhaul it. They did. Everything was new except the housing. It even had new wiring harness. I believe the price was $190. I essentially have a brand new pump.
