I have got lid off now. I can't see how I unattached the fresh water pump to replace. Do you have any recommendations for garages that can help me in Sussex plesaseyes just pull it out of the tank and replace it screw lid back on
It’s attached to a clear pipe that pulls off the pipe. It’s flexible so you can bend the pipe upwards towards the access hole. I’d start with getting the downstairs bed flat to help with access. Once the pump is off the pipe cut the electric wire to pump as close to the pump as possible (having disconnected all the electric connections first).I have got lid off now.

You can now slide the clear pipe onto the new pump and feed the cable from the pump through the grommet at the top of the tank.
I stripped some of the existing old cable and attached (joined) it to the new cable and after securing with gaffa tape pulled it through.
It helps to use vaseline on the cable to make it slippery.
Its a bit fiddly but easy really.
Thank you for this information. Will try and replace it.
