lower rail. Check contact and rail for tarnish or loose
wires. Clean as neccesary.
Blown fuse Replace.
Low or dead battery Test battery amperage capability (such as low
battery charge, low alternator ouput, defective
voltage regulator, bad battery cell, battery age
deterioration, etc.). Replace or recharge as
necessary.
Defective pump motor Remove motor from pump and inspect. Repair or
replace as necessary.
Poor cable connection Check cable connection and make sure that battery
terminals are in good condition (not corroded).
