Last year I had the secondary airpump replaced. It had water in it. The new one stopped working for the same reason. I have followed all the hoses making sure there is no holes. I believe it is the loose fit of the hose to the pump that is letting the water in. So I have tape the connection with electrical tape. I've hooked it up and started driving it. (The battery had to be replace so it had no power for 4 days - I hope that cleared out all the old codes). I received new error which says that it is not working. Is there a fuse or something I need to check? If so where might it be. Also, how else might water be getting in?

the check valve is the most likely reason for the water.

the pump, check valve need to be replaced as an assembly
