    Ditto
  • Thanks for coming back to tell us what the problem was. That helps us all. :)
  • Friends I found the problem.Antifeeze valve as stated in Ist post by enblethen was in wrong position.I was confused by the signage.Any way problem solved as soon as I put that valve in opposite position,air start coming out from faucets and water start coming.Thanks everyone who replied and give valuable suggestions.Something new I learned and this is part of one’s life.
  • Loss of suction ? Pump could need to be primed.
    Turn on a faucet furthest from the pump . Once lines are pressurized, turn on each faucet as you get closer to the pump.

    If your normal habit is to deplete your water tanks capacity when using it, then it could be a common enough occurrence for the pump to suck up some debris or plastic shavings from the manufacturer drilling holes in the tank while installing fittings.
  • Tank is full.
    Antifreeze intake valve in correct position.
    Which is operational valve in Winnebago Travato 59G 2019
  • Check for stuck pressure valve inside of pump housing. Valve is spring loaded and should move when pressing.
  • Agreed on the antifreeze intake valve being in the wrong position.
