Check the rubber gasket is in its proper place around the six screw holes and the wires are all connected
ensure no wires are on top of the rubber gasket as they will get pinched between the base and the VC100
housing. Ensure the two wires connected on the VC100 motor are secure. Carefully lower the VC100
housing down onto the base and hand tighten the 6 screws. DO NOT OVERTIGHTEN the VC100 housing
screws as this will crack the housing and will reduce its water integrity. DO NOT OPERATE THE VC100
