Folks, I've had this pump for a zillion years. After use one time I left it to the side. The next morning I saw that puppies had chewed the power cord off of it. No big deal. It is a round, keyed, molded, waterproof, three pin plug on the top of the pump. But the pups chewed it off so close to the connector that I could only guess at the original configuration. I had tried to ohm it out and couldn't make heads or tails of the configuration. I tried to take the pump apart but FM made sure that wasn't possible.

Does anyone have one of these style pumps that can tell me the configuration AC Hot/Ned/Grd relative to the keyed plug? May seem a small deal but I hate to throw usable stuff away.

Model FM6S. Yes, I replaced it but a backup is always valuable.

That is an old pump, F-M has been out of that line for many years. Back is line, white is neutral and the third one, probably green, is ground.
