I have this incredibly annoying problem with both of my XP3s and it's starting to drive me nuts.
If I unplug the filter for any reason, or even if there is a short brownout, neither of my XP3s start again gracefully. They both make a grinding sound and there is no water flow whatsoever. The only way I can ever get them going again is to drain the water from the canister itself and re-prime it.
The odd thing is that this does not happen on my XP4. But it happens with both of my XP3s.
It's a pain in the butt to be sure. But my biggest concern is if there is short power outage while I'm at work. The motor could very well burn itself out by the time I get home.
Does anyone have a similar problem with their XP3? If so, were you able to solve it?
