I discovered a leak today at the base of the Aquajet water pump. There are droplets of water coming out of the bottom of what looks like the motor housing at the same point where the two electrical power lines enters the pump. The droplets are about 30-45 seconds apart.
I doubt this is normal procedure. Does anyone have a schematic of the Aquatec Aquajet 5.3 gpm pump? Or, a solution short of replacement?
Thank you in advance.

For no more than a new pump costs I would replace the pump. I have seen posts where certain pumps have been disassembled and repairs made but unless you are handy with tools and a lot of patience IMO it is not worth the trouble

Ditto if it is not in warranty. You might first try tightening the screws around the head a little.
