Hi Everybody - on a recent trip the water level sensor apparently failed - it had only been replaced by a dealer a few days previously. Water reading zero so pump doesn't work but can be overridden by setting Autopump to Off. This is the third failure and getting a replacement requires a long wait. Decided to rig up a different system pro tem using a float valve and a light but wanted to take a live from the pump wiring near the tank. However, measuring with a multi-meter show zero volts irrespective of master/pump/tap setting which is not what I expected. With Autopump set to off pump works fine so what do these pump wires do? I can't find a wiring diagram so if anybody has any ideas of function and origin I would love to hear them! Can't see a related fuse, so can only think it is related to zero water.
Many thanks.
 
I am beginning to wonder if these wires have nothing to do with the pump but are more likely associated with the tank heater. I assumed pump as everybody else seems to make the same assumption.
