A Runaway Pump happens when your syrup pump is overworking itself trying to push syrup. You will hear a loud and fast chugging or whistling noise by your syrup boxes. This can be caused by an empty BIB or a pocket of air in your syrup line. To resolve this, you can follow the troubleshooting below:

If you prefer not to watch a video, these are the steps:

• At the BIB Rack, find the pump that is expelling CO2 and look for the flavor ID or follow the syrup line back to the BIB to identify the flavor
• Ensure that the BIB is not empty, if it is you will need to change it
• Remove the BIB connector and clean it by agitating it in a bucket of clean warm water for 10-15 seconds then dry it off and reconnect the BIB ensuring that the connector is only hand tightened and is not cross-threaded
• At the fountain dispenser, dispense 2 pitchers of the flavor whose pump was running, then check to see if the pump is still running
• If the pump is still running, you will need to request service, but you may consider disconnecting the CO2 line until the Pepsi Equipment Service Technician arrives
