I have one bay the reset button is popping. This suddenly just started happening. Can anyone tell me what to look for or why this may be happening? I can reset it then 4-5 hours later it happens again. Thanks

Reset pops due to over amp condition. Have you checked how many amps the motor is drawing? Could be over amps or the heater strips on the over current protector are getting weak from age.

Had one doing it intermittently because of a sticking pressure regulator. When the pressure went too high the draw was too much on the motor.
