Ok, rv lyons, there are a few possibilities. ?.,,.
Perhaps a switch failure ? But first check fuses...
Then as someone else mentioned, see if power is getting to the pump leads. The leads on my shurflo g
Have factory disconnect terminals. With a multitester check for 12volt dc. If your fuse is good and no power, that to me would indicate an open switch. To test switches use the ohmeter function on the multitester, or bypass the switch or switches, assuming you have one in galley and one in head. Furthermore you could use jumper wires from a known hot source to test pump from the pump leads.
And again a healthy love tap may bring it about again, if there is power to it.
Regarding the pump itself, several issues could be culprit. Debris in the impeller housing, burnt brushes, bad bearings, fried armature, bad internal pressure switch...
Were there any symptoms prior to failure ? Such as less pressure, strange noises, dry running, low batteries? Can you visually detect anything unusual or telltale signs? Any leaks? Has pump separated from motor ? (Sounds crazy but that happened to mine when screw housing threads stripped.)
You can separate motor from housing, or pump from housing.... but then you are totally committed to a Lobotomy of your system.....
I think , I hope, I've covered it.... make sure beer is part of your tool kit ! Or rum... hehe...
Where are you located ?
