One additional thing that I do; remove my bilge pump and switch to above the floor boards during winter storage and flush the pump with a 50/50 mix of ethylene gycol and water and leave the bottom end of the pump submerged in the same mix...I think that helps to keep the pump in good shape for

Since purchasing this Enterprise about 10 years ago, I’ve gone through several automatic bilge pumps. Either the motor fails, never stops running or the float switch gets jammed. I’ve tried both the float switch and the automatic versions. I liked the idea of an automatic, especially if you

Edd: I had the same problem with bilge pump float switches failing. It turned out to be the old un-tinned wire. Every time I replaced a switch, it would work for awhile until the un-tinned wires got corroded near the most recent splice. Since I changed out this wiring to good tinned wire, I
