I have a 2008 Moomba LSV.
The right rear (drivers side) Ballast Bag will not empty. It will fill, but it won't empty.
The Middle Ballast bag and the Left Ballast Bag both work fine.

I changed all the fuses and I also changed the Ballast Switch and this did not correct the problem.

Does anyone know what I should do next? Can this right side outflow pump go out?
Where is this pump located?

The drain pump is on the engine side of the divider panel that separates the engine and rear locker. Test that pump and the connections to make sure you are getting power.

Make sure you have power. If so and pump doesn't run it's probably toast. If not you have to trace backward to the switches. I have seen blown fuses and even broken wires and loose connections.

Is the pump beneath the floor board?

No it's in the engine bay, mounted to a bracket that is flush with the floor

Do you happen to know what type of pump it is, so I can order it ahead of time??

I think they are Rule 750 gpm areator pumps.

Not the exact pump you have installed, but this is what I used on my 2007 to replace my 700 GPM Rule pump that had failed. It will still fit the clamp. You may also need to purchase a fitting.

Yea, the Tsunami 800 is a better pump than what is in there now.
