Flojet reversed on me

We have a Flojet hardwired and have used it a dozen times without a problem. Today it couldn't pump out and I heard gurgling in the RV drain pipe. After several tries, I reversed polarity and it was back to normal pumping like before. Can a DC pump reverse direction for any reason besides polarity. Just to be clear, I did not have the polarity reversed as it has been hard wired and always worked properly before today ��

if you reverse polarity it will operate in reverse. It's possible if you did it once (by accident) it sinks that direction, but that's just a guess. I have mine on a Anderson plug so there is no way i can accidentally hook it up in reverse. I've use my Flow Jet over a couple dozen times and never had it go in reverse on me..

It was probably a loose connection, and it will work with either polarity. When you switched the wires you corrected the fault.
