[C320-list] Macerator

Tim, 
I won't be back to my 1999 boat until Tuesday, I am sure you will have the information by then. Before you replace try this, may not work in your situation but worth a try. The macerator may be jammed, happened to me. At the bottom end there is a screw slot that will accept a flat screw driver, try turning that several turns then try the pump again. Hard to believe that with limted use that the pump is done.

Does anyone know the model of the macerator pump on our c320 vintage 1999. Seems 
while I was flushing the water tanks I turned this on by mistake (on the hard) 
and ran it dry. Now when I turn it on it draws on the batteries but no movement 
from the motor. Need to replace so I can use the head!! 

thx

For those interested, over the winter I did the engine pod upgrade used John's 
shopping list and it was a piece of cake to complete. I also added a 2 blade 
flex-o-fold, very happy with it, again using the loaner tools, this too along 
with a new cutlass bearing were simple to complete.
