Second day.

The pump continues to work with the new grounded plug. No tripped breakers.

Has had plenty of time to build condensation in the submerged pump housing if that were the problem. So, it seems that moisture had worked it's way into the molded power cord/plug. Not a lot, but enough to trip the GFCI breaker.

So, cost me $45 for a replacement GFCI breaker (which I didn't need, but can't return). And a new plug, $6.

But a Whole Lot Better than $500+ to replace the pump.

Thanks for the suggestions!
