    Does it quiet down with a full tank or still noisy? If it's noisy with a full tank that's not normal. If the screen gets debris on it from crap in the tank it will make the pump scream.

    Had the same issue, I found only one way to quite it down after 2 weeks of whining real loud----replace it. You are on the verge of the pump failing. I took mine to the dealer to have it looked at and was told it may last a day or 10 years but from their experiance it usually isn't long. In my case 14 days long, so for the bad news.
