What can you tell us about the pump that went out? Brand? Etc.
Do you hapen to have it connected on a line that has a GFCI? (Any pump should be on a GFCI outlet for safety). Sometimes it's the GFCI that is failing and not the pump.

well, right off the bat, we're not talking a great pump. And if you looked at the wattage that thing consumed, it would make your head spin further.
If it's under warranty go ahead and replace it, but long term you should look at buying a good pump. It's the lifeline of the pond and you want to avoid it crashing. There are many here who can give you advise on a good workhorse pump at a reasonable price.

oh, you DON'T want a submersible! Give me a budget and I'll find you something. Also, provide needed GPH.

Sequence pumps are great from what i hear I'm buying one from DoDad today. you should check out the one he has for sale though. he has the 4200GPH pump for less that whole sale. I cant say the price here i guess but its much less than the $265 your looking at and free shipping. PM DoDad for everything.

Quick, look at the Classified forum as DoDad has an amazing deal on the Sequence 750 that ends June 30th. You won't believe the price--it's insanely cheap an free shipping. Quite a bit cheaper than the price you saw on Ebay.
