Approx. 2 years after I had my LQ (my husband did my trailer), my water pump will not shut off the way it is suppose to, it sounds like a machine gun going off right before it shuts off.  We have changed the pressure switch then we thought the problem was the toilet, but it wasn't that either.

Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this problem?

Some pumps have an inlet filter screen. Does yours? is is partially blocked?

Does your trailer have a pressure riser, or a tank to accumulate air pressure?  It may be that your riser has become water logged.  If you turn your water on very slightly, does the pump sound the same?  I had to add a pressure tank to my system to slow the pump cycling on and off.
