fresh water problems

have you tried to take the screens off yet? they are hard to unscrew sometimes but they do come off. they use these plastic inserts that are supposed to conserve water and have very small holes for flow.

Take it back to the dealer and let them check it.

I did get training from the dealer and have called them. They are stumped also. I'm a machinist so I do know a little about mechanical things but this one does not make any sense what so ever.

If you have a city water fill valve is it in the fill position?

I would bet the screens are clogged. But he needs to find someone close by that is willing to look at it and after getting it working to offer to train him how to use the systems. Sounds to me like he either bought used or got no PDI from his selling dealer. The water system is pretty simple stuff. Water in, water out. Water in, no water out means a valve is closed that should be open, or there is something blocking the flow.

It sounds like the pump is cavitating (full of air). It hasn't picked up water from the tank for some reason.

Things to check:

1) Is the water heater full of water? If no, you will have to pump 6 or 10 gallons to fill that.

2) Open a faucet to allow the pump to push air out of the system.

3) Is the winterizing valve for drawing anti-freeze into the pump in the proper position. If not, you are drawing air through the winterization hose.

4) Less likely, the pump is worn out or the pick up in the tank has fallen off.

Good luck.

op stated even hooked up to city water which would bypass the pump, he still didn't get anything.

could be a long shot but my first trip out with my camper I had water problems. I unscrewed the faucets and shower head, basically anywhere there was water, and found that the screens were clogged with these little grains of I guess winterize. I took the water saver plastic pieces out of everything and fixed the problem aswell as gained a little better flow. good luck bud!
