Question on water pump?

Still Can't locate the fuse for the power on water pump. However now it seems that the city water entering Emmy coach is not only going in but also leaking into the fresh water tank. This seems to just started when my pump went out.
Is there any coordination between the to.

Need to know before I start going into the intake valve.

Thanks for any information

Again, it is a Sure Flo water pump with 3 separate on and off switches in the coach.

    My thought exactly.

  • 3 switches for pump...then it has a latching relay

    Pump switches connected to 'ground' so they make up circuit thru latching relay

    Locate latching relay and check for DC to it

    Fuse could be at pump or at relay






    As for fresh water filling while using city water
    Either the 'Fill Valve' (if used) is leaking thru
    OR
    Pump Internal check valve is not closing and allowing backflow thru pump
  • Fuse for that device is usually within a few inches of the pump. Find the pump, and the fuse will be very close. Probably in the red wire.
