No water

All was well last fall before i winterized. Now i have good water to main sink cold only, no water from hot faucet. No water from either side in bath sink or tub. Had lots of air and some water from all to begin with. Water heater has water from vent when open, so it would seem that is full. No water leaks underneath.
What did i do?
Thanks

did you remember to return the water htr bypass switch to its normal position?

Sounds like the check valve coming off the water heater has failed. Depending on location, it is a simple fix. Happened to us, but luckily it was summer and the water in the tank was pretty warm.

It's a valve, not a switch.

Clean the screens in all the faucets that don't work. Tiniest amount of anything in the screens and no water will come out.

This is an early pictorial of the winterizing bypass methods. The BYPASS idea is the same in todays RV units... The idea is you don't want to route the pink stuff through the hot water heaters when winterizing...

My 2008 model uses this setup... The newer trailer do it all differently...

mbrooking mentioned check valve. You may have only one valve plus a check valve, unlike the above pictures. The check valve would be where the hot water comes out of the heater.

Dont think i have a water heater bypass or a check valve. There is only the two lines going to and from the heater with no jumper to be found. And coming out of the heater is just an elbow that once opened lets lots of water out. Its a 99 Tioga, any suggestions where a bypass of check valve may be?

Try rockhillmnor's advice above. We had the same issue. I took the aerator(sic) off the non-working faucet, cleaned out the screen and voila! That solved the problem.

There is no aerator in the kitchen sink fauset, and i have good cold water from it but no hot. Same with the tub, great cold and no hot. Unless your meaning under the handle? The bathroom sink has no water from either.
Now since my last post, ive hooked up to the city water supply and i get a burst of hot water from the tub, then nothing, then a burst, then nothing . That makes me think that there is a valve I'm missing, but I'm sure I never shut one off.
