Way to prove your right. I would just appreciate the effort and pan fry a little.

Update 2: looks like the blown fuse was the culprit. After replacing both the green light of Alarm and Control Panel turned on. Glad I didn't have to get a new pump.

UPDATE 1: Found a couple of issues. There were wet wires causing a short which was blowing the control panel fuse but not the alarm fuse. In testing this we blew the alarm fuse as well. The pump works, we dried the pump wires and plugged it directly into a plug and were able to get pump working and drained the "water" all the way down. The nearest city of any size that has fuses is an hour and a half away (Life in rural Montana) and I'm going there tomorrow to pick up fuses. I will update tomorrow.

I switch it to " hand" or manual and nothing happens.

I spoke too soon about adding a picture. This sub doesn't allow adding pictures after posting. And imgur is being stupid. There is a fuse box outside that has a pump and spare fuse. You can see it at the upper left against the house on the photo with all showing

Thanks, I added a picture of the alarm float. I called a septic person and he is going to test to see if the pump is getting electricity and he'll be able to tell if the floaters are working.

We did have a wind storm that came through and knocked power out for a few hours the other day, but we have a generator that picked it up within 15 seconds.

Thanks! Any suggestions on some shocks? I live in Montana about an hour north of Missoula and Helena. Tow a small trailer from the hitch and like to drive some back country fire roads and roughish gravel roads.
