Major problem today.

Flushed water system today, turned on pump, nothing, checked wires at pump, 13.66 volts, pump inards were clean, pump would not run, pulled pump, tested on truck 12 volt battery, pump works perfectly, rechecked wiring - tested 13.66 volts again (converter online), but could not get wires to spark even on a dead short, thus voltage but no amperage to run pump.

Any ideas - we are going camping next weekend. Everything worked fine when I winterized the system.

What about the ground. Try grounding the pump with a new wire. Maybe the ground wire is broken somewhere.

I second the ground theory.

Took the trailer back to PleasureLand RV in Ramsey MN.
Found out that when they installed the new switch under warranty, that it was installed wired incorrectly. The voltage coming thru to pump was what had passed thru lighted portion of switch only! Swapped the wires at switch and all worked perfectly.
Attention to detail is the issue I have with PleasureLand RV. This has been one of many. They have made all correct, but the time lost and travel expense is excessive.
