Then, you have to "condemn" what's working then. Start with the pump motor. Take off the motor wires from the connection block (if any), take a "cheater" cord-cord with a plug on one end and pigtail wires on the other-wirenut the wires from the motor to the cord and plug it in the wall to see if the motor spins. If that works, check the microswitch for operation. Is there power going down to the head of the pump when you press the oil delivery button, does the timer motor turn the delivery setting wheel? If not, either the timer motor is gone, connection problems to the pump from the top or switches up on the cabinet is gone as well. If it's switches, those can be picked up a Lowes, Home Depot, Radio Shack, or any electrical place and will be cheaper than Cretor's price.
Why you don't get any help from Cretors is that they've let the concession dealers handle supplies and parts.
Check this site out and give these people a call. This is a good place for parts and supplies for almost any Cretors units.
