5 people coming for dinner and water pump quit
okay. I know there isn’t much that we can do as far as replacing the pump today but is there a way to bypass pump so we at least have water to get us by?
thanks! -

I don’t know about. Most you can hook up direct to city water/water hose. before that make sure wires have not pulled loose from pump. Also check for tripped breaker/blown fuse. Fuse hint sometimes they put a inline fuse close to pump. Hope Liberty guys read and can help. Another possibility tap (don’t smash) the pump with a hammer as sometimes this will dislodge a stuck motor…..not a permant fix. Can explain but would take awhile. Easy test.

What Bob said is the only way I know you can get water. Be aware if you can hook up to city water you might not be able to flush the toilet, depending on where the accumulator is relative to the toilet and how well the accumulator is pressurized.
I know this will not help you now, but losing the pump has been one of my fears so I added a small back up Shurflo type pump and an accumulator dedicated to the toilet as a backup.
