sounds like you need to adjust the floats, did you inspect them, make sure there is no build up on it

Yeah I did the only thing that I can think of is that I have them right together and in my old sump I had about 3" in-between them

Check your setting switch on the side of the ato to make sure your in the right mode and verify that your float lines didn't get crossed when it was moved to new sump.
Also Not sure if this will help or not but I recently bought one and was having issues with the ato locking up and pump not turning on. I origanally thought the thing was broke already. I checked there website and found more indepth instructions. Turns out that if you open the case for the main unit it has a dial for the amount of time the pump is allowed to run. Mine was set to 3 1/2 min of run time. If in that time it did not fill the sump area it would go into a pump save mode and not allow the pump to run anymore unless the I reset the unit. I endend up changeing mine to the middle range(7min) and it's working perfectly now.
OH YAH and you can turn off the annoying alarm that comes on every time it runs, also a internal switch
Hope this helps

This was probably already considered, but I have issues with my float valve being triggered when my turbo snails decide to mount themselves on it, leaving me to come home to a soggy carpet and an empty RO reservoir...
There is no way a snail could get to the floats... but thanks
