Macerator pump not working? Try this before spending hard earned boat bucks on a replacement.

So your macerator pump has given up, can't empty the holding tank (where it's totally legal to do so). Before you reach for the wallet or check book to buy a replacement, try this little trick first.

Yep, the motor was not spinning and it was tripping out the circuit breaker(this was after pulling the whole thing out TWICE for a blockage🥵) and your tip worked a treat! Thank you.

Thank you. It saved us some dirty work and money

Saved the day, I was just about to tear the pump out. It's super inaccessible, but that shaft was easy to get too. You literally made my 4 hour job a 2 min fix. Thank you!

Does this method work for the propeller or the blade? I've bought enough several brand new and the blades work but nothing pumps outwards

[@workinonaboat1950]

the type of macerator we have here, the chopper blades and the rubber impeller are both driven by the same motor shaft.

Just like a sink garbage disposal in a home...
