Super Odd!!! I has a leak in the connection to the hot water tank. Replaced the cracked check valve and put everything back in order. Tested the connections and no leaks BUT NOW!!! I have no water in the bathroom sink hot or cold both faucets!!! The shower works both faucets and the water for flushing the toilet works. The shower is to the left of the sink and the toilet to the right.
Not sure how draining the hot water tank and repairing the leak could cause this problem? Super ODD and frustrating

OMG!!!!! The screen!!! I knew the check valve was fine because ALL other water stations worked fine.....but still kept looking in the water heater cabinet for the solution. Simple solution, totally overlooked........thanks!!!!!!!!

My buddy was just telling me about the same occurence in his camper. They found that the little mesh aerator in the faucet was totally blocked. Easy fix. Check it out.

we also had the debris in the aerator screens - no water flow- I now have one of the hose washer's with the screen on it in every hose- saved my butt a few years back as they got a little liberal with the pipe dope paste when they replace the hose bibb's - the screen stopped it, cleaned the screen and continued to fill

Could your check valve be in backwards? They have an arrow on them to point the direction of the water flow. Just a thought.

Had the same thing happen to me. Called the mobile RV repair guy back.
He took the screens out of both faucets and I had water. :S

Couldn't believe that BOTH faucets at the same time could have particles fill each and every hole in those screens but it sure did.

We must be willing to get rid of the life we've planned,
so as to have the life that is waiting for us.

X2, when you worked on the water heater you probably stirred up some calcium flakes and they passed on to the faucet and plugged up the strainer. Unscrew the strainer and clean it. Good luck
