    those are on the pump, you test the harness side that you un plug from the pump, hit every pin inside each plug. one may be for the high speed and the other for normal speed.

    if any of the pins light up the test light, you have power back there. and then the pump is suspect for sure.

    a bad pump will/can work, then not work for a while before it stops working altogether.

    banging on the bottom of the tank sometimes can bring a dead pump back to life, maybe playing with plugs was enough banging on it to spark life back into it.

    you'll find out in the next day or so, when it dies or keeps on working. be prepared for it let you down tho. pay that aaa card up lol

    theres even the small chance the plug was dirty and taking off and back on made the plug have a better connection. <<<very small chance.
