there’s a storage tank that needs to be checked. it has a tire valve thingy on it and you use a regular tire guage to check the pressure.

if there’s no pressure, you need to pump air into it, usually 50lbs or so. if it doesn;t hold air, the bladder inside is no good… but it you do not hear the well pump working, you may have a bad circuit breaker or shut off switch… if that’s good.. dig deep cuz your well pump is no good.

guess what!!you need your pump replaced.if your pressure tank is empty normally this is a sign of a bad pump or control box.Call a pump installer NOT A PLUMBER. Most drillers/installers do not charge any extra for weekend work.Ask before you have them come out.I would not attempt to change out pump yourself, if you were to drop it, it will cost big buck to retrive it.

Your pump is probably not working. There is too little information for any more detailed answer. Post more information if you want a better answer.
