Honstly im cheap and i just want it to spray, dont care how lol

that could be done real easy like. you just need to cut the wires at the plug, (leave 4 or 5 inches of wire on the plug end) and run the wires from the plugs pig tail to power and a a switch, do put a fuse on the power line.

That's what I'm probably going to do. Just not worth the time/effort to try to find where the short is, or if the adapter is bad. I just have to make sure the pumps I have are good. I'd be kicking myself if I found out the new pump I bought was bad as well.

if you take the pump out and run a neg and pos wire off your battery to the pump, it will buzz/hum when power is added.
