The pump in the trunk? . . . left hand side, under a little trap door in the carpet.

If no sound when button is pushed, could be either bad pump motor, blown fuse, bad switch, or bad wiring / connection. Check the fuse first. If not that, disconnect wire harness at motor and check for voltage in both directions (while someone presses switch up/down). If you have power there, then the motor is likely bad. If no power, then the switch is next place to look.

try checking the little black **** on top of the pump. if you turn that **** you can either have it as a power top or a manual top. if that doesn't work, the motor is probably bad.
