Where is the water pump on a 1999 fleetwood Prowler 39w

I fixed a leaky toilet float valve on this camper that the water pump would stay on. The water pump would come on when flushing and and using the sink and shut of when the tank filled or turning the water off but now I think the water pump burnt out and I can not find it. It sounded like it was under the bathroom sink when it was working but I see nothing. Could it be in the floor? Plus the water is hooked up to city water so why is a pump running when there is no battery or tanks on this park model? Anyone have info would be greatly appreciated ๐Ÿ™‚ also known as a Terry Park

Thanks guys. I found out that there is a spring regulator in the inlet water lne. Im ordering a adjustable regulator to get more pressure.

Thanks,

Park models usually do not have a water pump/tank as been mentioned.

Thanks Kevin. This is a 2 bedroom park model. No built in furniture. I hear a noise in the bathroom when the water is turned on. The water started working again when I went ouitside and turned the outside water on the hose and turned the main off and on several times. There may have been a clog in the main that I flushed out. Like I said there is no water tanks or black tanks on this model. But what sounds like a pump comes on when the fauset is turned on and slowly stops after the water is turned off. I have no false back wals or floors that open. I see a water line that vibrates when the water is on comming from the floor under the bathroom sink which might be the noise im hearing but I just dont know. I'm just glad the water is working for now LOL ๐Ÿ™‚


No water tank then NO water pump.

You are hearing a supply line vibrating against a wall OR the city water inlet check valve is making the noise
Is it time for your medication or mine?

Assume you know that water pump typically won't run if your connected to shore water? It operates on pressure differential and the pressure of shore water should keep it from turning on.

With that said - when you say the pump made a noise near the kitchen sink - in some rigs there is a couch/table setup near the kitchen - might take a look under the cushions and see if there is a compartment.

the city water supply is plugged in between the two slide outs. The bathroom is right across from the water hookup. I pump started humming last night. I could hear it in the side of the sink and the wall but there is nothing under the sink and no panals. I am going to remodel the bathroom so I will find it sooner or later but it would be nice to have water while I do the remodel LOL Its just strange that there is no way to find this pump. I dont see water tanks or tank fills on this park model either. Thank you for your info ๐Ÿ™‚

You are plugged into AC power.........
Water pump is probably an AC model due to rig being a 'park model' OR rig has converter to supply 12V DC power

Water pump pressure switch could have been stuck OR city water pressure is low (below pump set point)

Does pump try to run if you shut off city water?

Pump would be very close to fresh water tank....where do you fill tank on outside>>>>>>>>>>look opposite that location for pump. Can be inside behind/under panel.
