Our pump 2 has tripped (red light is on), what does this mean and what can I do to reset it?

Possible silly question, but should our water pumps be on 'hand' or 'auto', thanks in advance

thanks, Hatim has given me a number of a guy (Jazer?) who is going to pop round to have a look, thanks for the offer of your DH coming round that's really appreciated, mine's at work (not that he's very technical, he has other talents he tells me!!). We've been having a few problems with the pumps but nothing major until now guess it just needs looking at ... like everything else in the Mazayas, and of course the warranty on the house is up! Still loving living here though :) ETA it's the pressure drum - it's full of water and it should be full of gas, had Al Dammam out, contact given by Hatim of Mazaya, apparently they only last 18 months to 2 years, sadly villa out of warranty, just waiting for LL to give go ahead for replacement. <em>edited by cymraes on 16/06/2012</em>

Ok, we are in a dp villa. Ours trips alot, we usually turn the auto off and then to manual to clear the air for a minute, then back to auto and it works. If he doesn't turn up let me know, DH doesn't mjnd popping over to have a quick look just in case it is easily solved.

Turn it off using theoutside switch and then back on, probably on the outside of the house. Ours is always on auto... HTH
