Thread: Jobo CPP2 motor is not turning on. How to repair?

    Jobo CPP2 motor is not turning on. How to repair?

    I have a Jobo CPP2 that has a motor that does not turn on.
    It heats, the pump works, but struggles. I think I needs to be cleaned. But the motor does not do anything.

    How should I go about troubleshooting the issue?
    Is there a place to find parts if necessary?
    Is there a repair manual available for this model?

    I'd start with measuring here and there with a multimeter and also hook up the motor to an external power source to see if it runs. Then take it from there.

    Not sure if it's related but I had a similar problem a couple of years back - there's a very small button that resets the internal breaker. Omar at Catlabs of JP might have an idea.

    Omer Hecht at CatLabs is the most knowledgeable guy I know. He just walked me through some serious problems with my ATL-3. Were it not for him, it would now be in the dumpster. He is worth his weight in gold.

    I am curious if you found a solution to your motor problem. I am having the same issue with my Jobo CPP2. Everything works but the motor.
    Curiously,

    Jim, if you are having the same problem that I have on one of my cpp2.
    In my case, the switch under my motor speed knob had broke. When I purchased it, the motor worked great at all speeds, but would not shut off. Your motor switch might just be broken in the off position. Listen carefully for that click when you turn it on. I’ve since removed the broken switch and am sourcing a relplacement.
    Hope this helps
