I’m camping in Holbrook Az. and now its 30 now tonight to be 15. I have 2/3 fresh water in tank. I have a temp sensor in most compartments (Water pump area, fresh water and sewer, and in the basement area) and they are all in the 50-degree range. I can hear the water pump making noise, but no water is coming out of ANY thing: faucet, shower, and toilet. The water heater has warm water when I trip the pressure release valve.

I’ve turned off the water pump for now.

We had running water earlier today it was 50 then.

So, any help would be fantastic as we are heading to Grand Canyon for Xmass.

Any tricks or tips of what to look for ???

All fuses (12v) are good and all the breaks e(AC) except for engine heat are on.

Thanks,
Buck

Had a similar issue a year ago. Turned out I had a small crack in the screen filter at the water pump intake. No leak as there is no pressure. However when the pump came on it was easier to pull air vs pulling water. Threads were the same so I just removed the filter and connected the line directly to the pump.
That reminds me, I still need to replace that filter!

Good luck,

Dennis
