The water quit in my house. I was told that it was probably the pressure switch. I found that if I clicked the points by hand ,that would make the pump go and put water back in the house. I did that for about a month. Then it didn't work anymore, so I replaced the pressure switch. It is a square d 40/60. That didn't do the trick either, so I replaced the pressure tank. Still no go. Is my submersable pump burned out? Where do I go from here?

Are you getting power to the pump leads? Measure at both sides of the switch, points open and closed. What do you read? If you are getting 240 VAC at the switch and through the switch, the pump is most likely bad.
