    My live well fill and the live well recirculation pumps will not function. The switch lights up when in the on position but no activity on either pump. Any suggestions

    Pumps are cartridge style, remove the cartidge & check for debris blocking the impeller.

    Pump wiring shoukd have a quick disconnect in bilge…..good place to check for 12v.

    Rotary switches can fail even if the illuminator functions. In fact, I have one to replace right now.

    I went through a few pump issues. The pumps and 12v power were good, it was the grounds that had failed. I ended up adding a black buss bar for 3 grounds. Something to look at if the pumps and power test ok.

    Pumps are probably bad. I just had to replace a couple of mine. If they're the Attwood Tsunami like mine were the new Tsunami 2 pump cartridges fit the original housing. I did have to replace the thru hull livewell fill pump/housing because mine was leaking though.
