Tucson Equinox fault 3C
Vibration from pump mounting surface (noise in pump)
Shower pumpWhat it means
Noise in the pump caused by vibration transmitted from the mounting surface.
Likely causes
- Vibration from pump mounting surface
- Pipework not adequately secured/supported
- Pipe vibration against surfaces
Where to start
- Check that pipework to and from the pump is adequately secure and supported
- Check that the pipe vibration against surfaces is not creating the noise

Safety: Isolate power and water, and prove dead before you open or test the pump.
From the Tucson manual for the Equinox. Check the model on the data plate before you order parts.
