In this video I had a problem with my water pump in my rv. I filled up the water tank to go dry camping. I had to first sanitize my water holding tank I used bleach to do it. After I had filled up the tank I I turned on the water pump. I could hear the water pump pumping or at least it sounded like it was. I waited for a few minutes to fill up the lines. I then turned on a spigot and absolutely no water or air was coming out. I then had to find my water pump and diagnosis how and why it wasn't pumping. After I took off the lines and found the problem the plunger was stuck it all was better we had water. No telling how much the jayco dealer would have charged me to fix it.

Great advice. I’d gone through so many videos and forums all about shut offs etc. Saw this and was very doubtful it was going to make a difference after so many tries. turns out mine was stuck too! Was in shock when it all started working. Such a help, I’m in Texas during this bad winter storm with the city water down so was much needed thank you!

THAT job will be a whole lot easier this fall. I give you 5 👍👍👍👍👍 up. Thanks again. I wonder if a little silicone grease around that opening would fix the issue for good. I used a smidge on a tap valve replacement as advised by an rv service guy. Said it was non toxic so... might be a good idea next time it gets stuck.

Thanks! This was my problem. Also when you have the pump apart the poppet pushes in, not pulls out. Hard to tell when it's stuck. One other point is I think I may have caused this myself. I have a Durango Gold with the big water manifold panel. I do recall in the manual it saying something about not turning the valves a certain way with city/well pressure against the pump system which I think I may have accidentally done and thus caused the issue of accidentally pressuring the outlet side of the pump.

Not sure if my valve is stuck because it will suck in water through the winterizing tube. .. and water from the winterizing will flow through the spigots. But when we close off the winterizing spicket we get no water pressure anywhere in the RV. So if it was a stuck valve then it wouldn't even work drawing in antifreeze as well? I think we have an air lock air leak somewhere.

It sounds like maybe the water in your holding tank is low, empty or maybe there is a loose hose. Could be your strainer bowl is not on tight and it's sucking in air.

You said hot water dry camping how do you do that, I just recently started to use plumbing service in my camper. So if you are plug into city systems I have hot water. But if you’re dry camping how to get hot water from the holding tank to your hot water tank.

It will pump into your hot water tank when you turn the hot side of the faucet on. My suggestion is to not turn on your hot water heater until you have water coming out of the hot water side that way you know it is in your water tank. Just like at home never turn on your water heater until it's full of water.

Mountaineer Outdoors so if the camper is not hooked up to city water and the fresh water holding tank is full of water, I can use my hot water and the water pump will pump water from fresh water holding tank, the hot water tank to the faucets?, reason I am asking this is I live in Canada and the provincial park only has electricity not water. The private camp grounds has full hook up.

Just a reminder to everyone that you do not want to put any bleach in your black tank including any sanitizer water because it will kill off the bacteria and enzymes in the tank that breaks down the waste and paper in the tank. Either run the sanitizer water through your lines and faucets until empty or run the water for a few minutes after the pink is gone and then empty the fresh water tank via your low point valve until empty and then close the low point and refill the tank without bleach. Only then should you run water into the toilet.

Just wash it out it will be ok. And then use your happy camper or whatever else you use to help break down solids and smells

wonder if your cut off valves are open?? does your pump turn on?? if so id take off the outlet side and see if it actually pushes water out.

Mine sometime cycles up to 10 times! I checked the strainer, - good and no leaks. It it standard for these pumps to go one up to 5 times after you use water? Or do you think the pressure regulator is st too low? Thank you.

Wow that sounds weird. Maybe the pump isn't working at full capacity. And only has enough power to push water thru some of the sinks etc. Or not sure where you live but could be that there is some ice due to the cold weather and that's why it is not working
