    Help LIVEWELL PUMP IN!

    Question? I have a 2018 skeeter zx225 and my livewell wouldn't pump water in to fill my livewells. but the oxygenator worked and the recirculation and pump out works. It's not a blown fuse! What would be some things I can try to fix it without having to tow my boat 2 hours to the neareast dealer? Thanks, guys.

    Is the pump motor kicking on? Is the light on the panel lighting up?

    not for the fill but the switch lights up. pump kicks on for auto recirculation and pump out! I think it's just one 1100 gph pump that runs everything.. Just the auto fill and manual fill not working.

    Possibly an air bubble in the lines? Try turning them on and putting the boat in reverse and pushing the gas a little and forcing a little water into the lines, my old ZX had the same issue.

    If none of this works try pushing in or pull out on the little valve where the water enters the live well. Good luck

    There are two separate pumps. The fill pump sits underneath the battery charger. Most likely you have a bad connection at the pump or the switch.

    If the light on the switch turns on and there is no pump kicking on, i would suspect one of the connectors behind the switch fell off or the connection at the pump is bad/loose.

    Thanks, guys for the help! The problem ended up being the fill pump under the battery charger had some trash in it. cleaned it out real good and started working again.. Now my relay switch for my atlas jack plate is sticking and jack plate won't go up or down sometimes. relay is going bad! I suppose it could be the fuse but it's under warranty so I am having a new relay switch put on!
