I have two fluval filters that aren't working. Does anybody know where and/or whom I can ask to try to fix them.
hello there.
what exactly do these fluvals do..when you connect them?
does the propellers move at least.......or what exactly.
elaborate....so we can at least give you insights or at least advice on them. 8)
i guess it must be the propeller that isn't working because it doesn't do anything when i plug in.
Can you hear the motor running?
not really
Not really or not at all? If the motor is not running at all, the solution may be as simple as a loose wire or as bad as a burnt out motor. If the motor is indeed spinning, perhaps a broken impeller, a minor motor jam, or even blockage.
I have found that sometimes just disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling some units can get them back in the game.
I guess I should try and run it outside of water to see if it is making any noise.
In regards to cleaning it. That's what I was thinking of doing. The problem I am absolutely handyman challenged. When I try to fix things myself, I have a tendancy to make things a lot worse.
hehehehehe.
Well ... it would be funny if it wasn't so true.
If it is a bad wire, what would you suggest that I do.
i will have a look if you like just pm me

There you go. I would have offered as well, but if I take on another project at home, I'll be six feet under. :lol:
