Just got a Brinsea Octagon Advance EX and have set it up for a test run. The incubator itself seems to be working just fine, but I am having trouble with the humidity pump.
Simply put, it is not drawing water up from the reservoir. I have checked the "wrapping" of the silicone tubing around the pump spindle and it seems correct. I have also sucked on the tubing like a straw; instead of getting water in the tube, it flattens itself out.
I have eggs coming in the next two days, and really want this part working by then. Any thoughts or tips?
Many, many thanks.
