Both water pumps are working

Now both of the water pumps are working...
we aren't sure why....

We had decided to try taking one or both off so we would know if we would be able to replace it ourselves (with Dwayne being slightly out of service) rather than going to a shop.

I took the cover off. We noticed that the "A" output line was turned off and turned it on. We decided to try it and sure enough, A came on.

Just to be sure that B was the problem, I switched the selector to B... Dwayne tapped B with the handle of a socket wrench... and now B works too.

Maybe the water pumps just wanted to stay overnight at a nice campground instead of WalMart?

We're thinking we are going to try using A for a week, and then B for a week, and swap back and forth... then, at least, we would know when one stops working... maybe...

View of the water pumps with the outside covering removed. The horizontal pipe near the bottom with the "A" on it is the one that had the stop-cock turned off... we're not sure why. The "A" pump is the top one, and "B" is the bottom one. Both seem to be working now...
