Possum If this does turn out to be the solution; order a second bushing in case you lose it or it gets damaged in cleaning. I always have a spare because I lost one, I assume it went down the sink drain while washing things up or rolled somewhere I can’t see. I never found it. I remembered Jon/Austin saying to always keep an extra auger bushing and an extra stuffer seal ring on hand. I now have spares of both on hand!
Weston Pro Vacuum chamber not sealing properly
-
I have had a Westin pro for a few years and the seal bar has stopped raising to complete the seal. Anyone know how the pistons actually work and what could be wrong? I have replaced the small pump that actuated the pistons and the pistons themselves, As well as the seal bar and it is still not working properly. It costs a lot of money to send back for service so I was trying to u stray and the process to see if I could Troy Leah lot and fix

James Parks Sounds like you are working it down to a circuit board problem. Is the pump getting voltage?
-
glen Yes, the pump gets voltage and comes on just like it did before and for the same duration.

I know nothing about these units.
Do they use any tubing and fittings to connect the actuator pump to the cylinders? Have you ruled out any leaks in that system that actuates the cylinders?
