    Hi Paul, sorry to see you’re still struggling. From memory, they should both run at the same time (assuming you are selecting to fill 1&2 of course). Those pump motors rarely fail so I would try swapping the supply cable over from one to the other and see if the motor that wasn’t spinning now spins. I hope that makes sense?
