Posting in the correct forum would help, you need plumbing advice, not general advice. I will see what I can do. {Looks for mod's phone number}
Above are my opinions Below is my signature.

Would you hit a nail with a shoe because you don't have a hammer? of course not, then why work on anything electrical without a means of testing Click Here to buy a "tester" just because it works, does NOT mean it is safe.
