Katsuo, after reading the things that you checked the pump should pump. I can only think of a couple of other things that would keep it from pumping.
Have you did anything to the 12 volt power to the pump. If the power is hooked up backwards the pump will run but not pump. Make sure that the pump impeller is spinning in the right direction.
If your wash down system has a leak in it then your baitwell could be sucking air, loose suction and then it will not pump. Also be sure to check and see if the ring seal between the baitwell pump head and the pump base is in place, if not it will not pump. I have seen the housing cracked at the barbed nippel where the hoses slip on and suck air.
Let us know what you find or not find. Im sure you will find the problem. Good luck, Bob
