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.
