I am trying to prep my trailer for a trip next month. So this morning I hooked it up to the hose to flush the water system again and just check things...like the hot water heater. I turned on the on-demand pump and the water in the sink faucet worked, flushed the toilet okay. Turned off the pump and tried the faucet again. No water. Toilet still flushed. Checked all the valves under the sink and all were turned on. Now, the pump won't cut on when the switch is flipped.Got out my book of instructions and if I am reading it right, if the trailer is hooked to 'city' water, it should by-pass the pump and work off the pressure from the hose. Am I right? If that is the case, why am I not getting water at the sink? I never did get to test the hot water tank. Guess I will be carrying the horses Hott Wash just in case!

Thanks!Did a little more sleuthing and managed to get water out of the hot water side, but the cold side is still just a trickle. There was quite a bit of calcium in the screen. Wonder where else it could be clogged.

Yayyy! Figured it out. Removed the cartridge in the cold water handle and it was clogged. It is running nice and free now.Now to replace the on-demand pump...
