Most people report a roof going ever more slowly, but the decrease in speed is only really noticeable once the pump has been renewed and the real speed can be seen in comparison.gookah said:I was wondering if it was stopping intermittantly, moving slowly, appearing to struggle, cutting out, etc etc.......
My roof failed to respond to a button push once, recovered from that but a couple of weeks later went down and wouldnt go back up.
As a general rule the motor just seizes as a result of increasing rust and gunk - I havent heard anyone saying a fuse went or similar beforehand (although a blown fuse might also be a cause of roof failure)
