[C320-list] Shower Sump

[Bruce]

Jason,
Make sure all of the connections are tight and leak free, including the  
strainer.  If their is a leak the pump will not be able to generate enough  
suction to prime.

Subject: [C320-list] Shower Sump

Hello all.  

I'm having some issues with my shower pump not draining on my new to me 2001  
320. I have opened the dual head shower sump through hull and the pump seems  
to run when I flip the switch in the head, but the water never goes down.    
There is a y valve that appears to be set correctly but I'm not sure what's  
on the other side of that valve.  

One thing that I notice is that there is a strainer before the pump and  
after the sump.  I removed the bowl expecting there to be some liquid but it  
was totally dry. 

I have to be missing something obvious. 

Jason
