Our master sump pump just stopped pumping a few days ago. I finally got the time to have a look at it. First I checked out the guest sump pump and it too is not running on auto mode. The guest has an "override switch" next to it and when I throw that the pump runs fine. The master does not have an override. I checked the connections and both wires are well connected and have power based on my meter.
Now I am not the greatest guy around electrics, preferring to let the pros do all of that, but I have switched out bilge pumps because they are just switching like for like.
I had a spare bikge pump so put that on the master sump - still nothing.
There are the black and brown bilge pump wires and a third blue wire joined up stream to the black.
So what is the function of the blue wire and secondly, any suggestions as to where the fuse for the sump pumps may be - the bilge pumps are fused at the pilothouse spring switches.
