Motor Diagnostics (X5 and X7)
Motor Diagnostics (X5 and X7)
If Motor Diagnostics reveal a damaged motor or if motor brushes are shorter than 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) replace the motor
using Motor Kit, page 26.
Setup
1. Unplug power cord and Relieve Pressure, page 9.
2. Remove enclosure and disconnect two black motor
leads to control board (see Wiring Diagram, page
36).
3. Remove motor fan cover by gently prying up on
retention tabs on sides of motor. Motor shaft should
spin easily when turning fan. If motor shaft does not
turn easily, there is a problem with pump, gears, or
motor (see Troubleshooting, page 11).
4. Inspect motor windings for evidence of overheating.
If windings appear burnt and motor smells, replace
motor.
5. Use Ohmmeter to measure resistance across two
black motor leads. Resistance of motor should fall
within range of 1.5 to 4.5 ohms. If motor falls outside
resistance range or is open circuit, replace motor.
6. Use Ohmmeter to measure resistance of motor
leads to motor laminations. If resistance is not open
circuit, replace motor.
7. Inspect length of both brushes by looking at brush
torsion spring. If spring is not bottomed out in slot for
brush spring, brush length is acceptable. If brushes
are worn out, replace motor.
Motor Diagnostics (ProX7 and ProX9)
Check for electrical continuity in motor armature, windings and brush as follows:
If Motor Diagnostics reveal a damaged motor or if motor brushes are shorter than 1/4 in. (6.4 mm) or if the motor
shaft cannot turn, replace the motor using Motor Kit, page 26.

Pressure Control Switch Diagnostics
ProX7, ProX9, X5, and X7
If pressure control switch diagnostics reveal a damaged pressure control, replace it with the correct Pressure Control Switch Kit, see page 26. X5 and X7 sprayers have different pressure control kits because stall pressure is pre-
set at the factory.
1. Unplug power cord and Relieve Pressure, page 9.
2. If paint is leaking from pressure control switch
between pressure control knob and base, replace
pressure control switch.
3. ProX7 and ProX9: Remove front cover, yoke, and
pins. Disconnect pressure control switch connector
from control board.
X5 and X7: Remove enclosure and disconnect
pressure control switch connector from control
board. Use finger to support control board when
removing pressure control switch connector.
4. Use ohmmeter to check for no continuity between
sprayer ground and both pressure control terminals
in connector. If either pressure control switch lead is
shorted to ground, pressure control switch wires
have been pinched to ground during assembly and
pressure control switch needs to be replaced.
5. Use Ohmmeter to measure across two terminals in
pressure control connector. No continuity or open
circuit should exist when pressure control knob is at
lowest pressure setting (full counter-clockwise).
Replace pressure control switch if continuity exists.
6. Using ohmmeter to measure across two terminals in
pressure control connector. Continuity or closed
circuit should exist when pressure control knob is
set at maximum pressure (full clockwise). Replace
