:welcome: to the club :thumbup: .

Not to sure about the washers, but if i was to have a geuss i would say the pump is probably seized/nackered. Hopefully somebody els will be able to shed some more light on the problem.

Got any pics of your :suzuki: ?

If its dimming the dash lights its taking some current. Although its most likely to be your pump motor, it could potentially be the cable too, id replace the pump unit first.
