I know of someone who drilled a small hole in the filler cap and ran a piece of fishing line through it to give the pump a shake without having to open up everything

I think that the pump seizes after a bit not being used beit the water starting to have growth around the moving impeller.
Yeah it got me a few times and what a relief when it started working
