Water pump

I’m sure someone has had this problem but I couldn’t find it doing a quick search. So, I was winterizing the rig (2016 3791RD) and after blowing out the lines, I was ready for antifreeze. So we don’t get off on a tangent, I know I can just blow out the lines and call it quits but I want to add antifreeze too. I have done this procedure every year. Moving on, after switching to “winterize” in the convenient center, and putting my hose in the antifreeze bottle, I turn on the water pump. No draw. Thought maybe I had a loose connection. Pulled the wall and checked all connections and all looked good. Still no draw. Disconnected the inlet hose to the pump to see if there was any suction there. No suction. Any thoughts ??

Btw, discovered that the noise produced from running the pump was mostly the pex lines vibrating against the back of the convenient center wall. After cushioning that contact, barely notice the pump noise now.
