Not sure what to look at. My pump will work fine for a few minutes when showering etc. then the water pressure drops off and then nothing. If you go to where the water line comes in and shake it the pump will kick on and you are good for a while again. It happens predictably over and over so I can't imagine it is a lose wire or contact. It is to the point to shower you need a "buddy" that can go shake the line when the water stops! Any ideas? :confused:
 
sounds like maybe the pressure switch or the tube going up to it...i would check those....
