    I have an older 619 (2006). The rear live well has a 3 position switch. Man/off/timer. The Man position has never worked so I could only fill it by timer. So I replaced the switch. They didn’t have the exact but had one they said replaced it. I hook it up the same wires. The Manual position still does work but now I have a Light on all the time. Man/off/timer. Timer position still works. Could this be the pump itself? Puzzled.

    Thanks

    The Manual position still does work but now I have a Light on all the time.

    Confused by what you wrote. “Does work” or did you mean to say “does not work”?
    I would guess the switch is not wired correctly, if it is light up when in the “off” position

    Might be the timer itself. Check to see how it’s wired. Maybe wrong from day one.

    This is where I would start. If the light is on when the pump is not turned on there almost has to be a wire connected to the wrong point or a ground not connected. If the light is full brightness I would start looking at the hot wires, if the light is a little dimmer than normal I’d look for a ground issue.

    your switch probably was wired wrong from the factory if manual has never worked.
    The switch has nothing to do with the timer. A wire brake down would help with figuring out you switch.
