No I was not suggesting that at all, but the report I read was that the
motor started, but there seemed to be a short in the wiring that tripped the
breaker again. Thus, one wonders if its the wiring to the pump not the pump.

It would be daft to change it only to find micrometeorite damage further
back on the cables.

The planned one was to be this week on Thursday. It will be postponed, but
some of the tasks will have to be done before the next shuttle mission, I
think. The planned spacewalk will be replaced by the pump module R&R
spacewalks, currently scheduled for Friday and Monday.

If they are not sure what the problem is its hardly a good idea to go and
try to fix it. I'd have thought with all the sensors they have it would
be
bloody obvious by now!

They are sure that the problem is somewhere in the pump module, so they
will remove and replace it. Would you suggest that they should analyze the
**** out of it and then take it apart during an EVA, Hubble STIS
repair -style? It would be much more risky, take more money, time and take
consumables...
