no way to start off my morning. 1/4 tank fresh water, pump lights on, been working like a clock......dead. I'm grouchy. Gotta have a cup of coffee....then????? check fuse at bed?? check power at pump?? Start drinking early??
Make ire there isn't a connection at the pump bar has failed (butt connector or worse a scotch connector). Then with a small hammer or a ratchet handle some gentle percussive maintenance might get it going for the day.
I/we always keep a one gallon jug of drinking water handy just for a dire emergency like yours.
(Actually it is the DW's idea. I am too much of a dumbass to think that far ahead)
butt connector? scotch connector??
the gauge lied to me. Filled with water. All is good. Thanks. Not grouchy anymore. On the road again!!
Another happy ending.
Bu.. but what about the 'start drinking early' idea?
I had a problem just like that. It was the ground wire for the pump. I pulled it off where the ground was intermittent, extended it to the compartment light switch at the door and made a new ground there. Courtesy of Bill Chaplins great cavern of a garage.
