What to do if your Eco Star pump says drive stall?
Attach a bond wire to the Eco star drive pump or tighten the loose screws on the bottom of the motor. When this has been corrected, shut the power down to the pump and rest it after five minutes. Check if the pump will now run. After checking these items if the motor is still saying drive stall error, it probably means that you need a new drive.
