Hey

I had a working bilge pump, now after having a replacement motor installed, the bilge pump does not work and is very hot to touch. Suggestions?

Is this a symptom of the pump burning out after being left on?

cheers,
Steve

Have u unclipped it might be something jammed in there if not see if the impellor moves freely might be seized. If in dout buy a newey.

very easy to install a new one crooked so that the impellor jams.. I would be checking the installation
