I filled the water tank today with the proper clorox mixture to flush the tank. Only problem is that the pump runs but won't pump out to any faucet. Here's my question, the manual says the pump should be under the cabin steps. Mine however is mounted next to were the icemaker is. I don't see any screw holes where pump may have been previously mounted. Therefore the pump sits probably 2-3 inches above the tank outlet. I removed the hose from tank to pump and blew out, also removed elbow to be sure water was able to get to pump. The pump is a ShurFlo diaphram pump and the label says 3.6GPM 45PSI. If I remove both hoses from pump and supply water to inlet water shoots out, so I'm assuming pump works but won't prime. I've run water through dockside connection and works OK. I was hoping this would prime the pump but it only lasted a few secs. Here's the Question: Is the pump supposed to be mounted under the stairs and thats why there is now water at inlet? Anyone with a 89 340EC should be able to tell me. Also the cannister filter showed in the manual is not there as well.
