Emmie. Shut off the pump power, drain the pressure tank of all water. Check air pressure in tank. Air pressure should be 2 psi below cut-in setting of pump.
(if pump cuts in at 30, then air pressure in tank should be 28.)

Turn on power to pump, pump should start and re-fill tank.


Note; Some pressure switches (square D sfg 2 ) have a lever that may have to be "tripped" in order for the switch to re-activate the pump.
If so, hold this lever up for a few seconds when first re-starting.
