Fresh water fill

Need some help, I’m getting frustrated. When I am hooked up to city water I have no water pressure - not low - no water. When I am using water from tank and using the water pump I have good pressure. I have changed the water inlet valve twice. Last one is a good brass valve. It worked good for about 10 hours, then no pressure. I don’t know what else to do. It is like somewhere things are getting plugged up. Does pumped water go through the whole coach filter? Could it be clogged? Any thoughts will be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    In your coach, the pump, if turned on, would run continuously if the selector were not in the normal position.

    To see if the whole coach filter is the issue, remove it form the canister and see if you have any pressure while using city water.

    If you can fill the tank through the hookup, valve set to fill tank, then the problem would not be the inlet valve.

    With my coach, if I can fill the fresh water tank with normal pressure, the problem would not be the filter, since the water goes through the filter on its way to the tank.

    Good luck finding the problem and please let us know what the resolution is.

  • We have a lever we have to switch from tank to city when we want water from a source other than our tank. It's in our water bay and is NOT by our city connection.
  • Fill selector is in correct position (Normal). The whole coach filter is a off-brand, I will check it in the morning.
  • See if your whole house filter has a bypass valve on it. If it does, try turning it to bypass to see if that gives you pressure. That would indicate a plugged up filter if it does.
  • You must have the water selector valve in the wrong position, should be on city water in your wet bay, ck the manual for operation.
  • Yes the whole house filter could be clogged.

    our water pump get its water from the tank, the city water comes thru the whole house filter.
    our fill valve must be in the closed position to get city water into the house system.

    does your tank fill have a automatic shut off ?
