Has anyone removed and replaced the livewell pump on the 2021 or simular fsh sport? Also do you have to replace the aerater as well? My livewell pump isn't working but my livewell pump is. I was just wondering if I should replace both.

So I’m going to assume you meant your live well fill pump isn’t working but your aerator is?

Pretty easy to do, pull the clean out tray and you can reach the live well fill pump as well as the aerator pump.

This is looking down into the rear bilge woth the clean out tray removed and you can see the red and white fill pump next to the electric pump I installed for the wash down system. Push down on that little red locking tab and it will spin out counter clockwise.

You can also reach the aerator pump with clean out tray off, just got to feel your way to it. You can also reach the aerator pump from the rear starboard drink holder.

Just be sure to re seal the clean out tray with silicone AFTER you have installed it..
 
For my 2020 195 Deluxe, it was an Atwood pump. Very very easy to replace, the motor spins out the housing. I picked up a few on Amazon. This one was the cheapest, I took the the motor out and throw out the housing:


FYI Aerator and Livewell are the same pump, but no need to replace the aerator if it is working.

Thank you for your reply. Yes I meant the fill pump isn’t working but the aerator is. Is that pump you ordered from Amazon for salt and fresh water because I fish both?

No idea - it is the same as OEM. If you want something different this job becomes difficult as you need to re-pipe. I use it in salt water only.
