Inlet nipple where the hose connects to the pump broke off... and I tried to glue it back together, but... didn't work....

So now I've attached the pump hose to the city water inlet (which I never used anyway) and added a separate switch for the pump. Heated the hose so it fit easily on the larger threaded nipple.

Actually I already had an extra switch right next to the battery/water level indicator. It was for an inverter that I had wired in to the built-in outlets, but the inverter had quit and I don't have much 120 stuff and was using a lighter plug inverter now anyway, so....convenient enough! Problem (well enough) solved...

If I happen to run across a solution that seems more appealing I'll put it in, but realistically it's good enough and I have enough other things to work on.
