thanks Denis and others,

        I now have the pump up and running. 

        I do have both fuses behind the driver’s seat red as that is how I found it.  But should I change the water pump, refrigerator fan and indicator fuse back to white? I now know that on my 85 that is the fuse toward the front of the van. 

thanks everyone.  without this list and a handy iPhone app that lets sighted folks identify things like fuse colors, I would not have my sink pump running again.  and, hopefully with improved wiring after all.

I also blued up my sink trap and all seems good again.  though I’m ordering the parts anyway to be ready for a future disaster.

 now , I’m going to temp the trip gods and try to address my squeaky breaks tomorrow, only 3 days before a big trip!
