Said 8 out of 10 no-drain calls on those are just a sock or a quarter jammed in the pump housing, so check the filter first before you order anything. Pulled a kid's sock out last Tuesday and the thing ran fine. Anyone else get burned by ordering a pump before you look?
Filter first, every time. That old tech saved you a hundred bucks and a callback. Checking the housing takes two minutes and the pump swap takes an hour.
