16 years is a long time for a livewell plumbing system, and there could be more than one reason why yours isn’t working properly. I imagine that Ranger dealers aren’t thick in Connecticut, but if you can get hold of a knowledgeable one, they can go through that and fix it up like new. Having witnessed the service techs at my dealer’s shop working on livewell problems, I’d say that they can be just as tricky to solve as electrical problems in boats. Well-established dealerships earn their money by saving you a lot of time.
