Water pump not working

[Gazuk]

So, supposed to be on our first trip tomorrow. Spent all day getting MH ready (Carthago I 150 year 2018 on Fiat Ducato).

Everything gone well and was just finishing up and went to use the tap, but no water. It was all working this afternoon when I primed the system. All cold taps, hot taps and shower. But now it looks like the pump is not kicking in.

The pump is on at the control panel and the fuse for the water pump looks good. I had left the pump on all afteroon after I primed the system. There is still water in the fresh water tank, but it was low so I topped it up. Probably about a quarter full now.

Any ideas (apart from water pump knackered) ?

If you can access the pump make sure all wires are fully pushed in.

In tank pump or external?

If it's external turn on a tap then give the pump a couple of whacks with a knife handle or similar.
Whack it at the opposite end to the pipes near the internal microswitch.......the switch may have jammed

If you have a multimeter/pea bulb + couple of wires, check supply at pump

Did you get it sorted? Might be helpful to others to know the solution.

Sounds like you have left it on if you ran it on low water.

If submersible is there any sign of overheating on the casing?

.Give it a thump!

He has already sorted it, must have started 2 threads.

It was all going so well.....

So, MH are ready to go tomorrow, just went to rinse a spoon in the sink and no water. It woul now appear the water pump is not running. There is water in the fresh water tank (about a quarter) and it was all working fine this afternoon. The switch is on at the control panel and I am still on...
