Roadtrek Water Pump

My water pump barely makes a sound when I turn it on. It appears to be working at minimum power. When I leave it on for a few minutes and then turn the water tap on, water comes out in spurts and then stops.

Is my water pump finished or is there something I can do to fix it.

I did check to make sure there was water in the tank. Since it is working somewhat, I assume the fuze is OK.

The placement of the water pump makes it difficult to see whether there are any loose wires. I could have a look at that if it seems to be a matter of a loose wire somewhere.

Any assistance would be appreciated.

  • Thanks I have no knowledge whatsoever on the operation of the pump or it's components. I will have to do some research to find out how the hoses are connected and also find out where the diaphram is located.
  • mine was acting like this, found it sucking air from a loose hose, pumps do go bad, and there rebuild kits for most of them. you could also have a leak in the diaprham of the pump.
