The pump has an automatic shutoff if it overheats, so I hope it might be salvagable. I'll try to find some YouTube videos how to open it and make sure it isn't clogged or jammed. But not today. It has some other features too that might have protected it. Fingers crossed.
The goods news is, a new costs less now than when she bought this one.
Thank you!
