Agreed on the antifreeze intake valve being in the wrong position.

Check for stuck pressure valve inside of pump housing. Valve is spring loaded and should move when pressing.

Loss of suction ? Pump could need to be primed.
Turn on a faucet furthest from the pump . Once lines are pressurized, turn on each faucet as you get closer to the pump.

If your normal habit is to deplete your water tanks capacity when using it, then it could be a common enough occurrence for the pump to suck up some debris or plastic shavings from the manufacturer drilling holes in the tank while installing fittings.
