|
|
So I am having sink problems. Over the winter I installed a sureflo faucet. Everything worked at time of install. The tank was empty, but just to check I turned on the faucet and heard it active the pump, turned it off immediately and never touched it again.
Last weekend I filled the tank for a trip and to my surprise, nothing at the sureflo, no water, no sound, no nothin'. I do have power to my little status LED panel, so power is getting there. I read a ton of threads, but alas, I come to you for specific advice.
Any ideas are appreciated. I have a pretty standard aux setup that began as a GW kit and has been modified some.
Thanks in advance. |

It is a '90, I have checked the fused, they don't look fried and the metal piece is intact. Wouldn't I see an outage in my LED panel if the whole lot wasn't getting power? |

If the fuses are good, turn the faucet on, check for power to plugs for the pump. If it has power then you have a pump issue. _________________ 1987 Syncro Westfalia Hightop - NAHT

You are correct. The pump/switch share the same fuse with the led panel. Your problem is most likely a bad pump but you could have a loose wire.

Did you fill it from the inside? I had a problem with one of the connectors coming loose when I took the top off the tank to fill. _________________ 57 R50, 60 R60, 65 Tempest, 66 Bul, 67 R69, 72 Combat, 73 Eldo, 91 SS, 91 Westy, KTM 950A, etc |

If it isn't the wiring, did you leave water in it over the winter? The little propeller on the bottom of the pump can freeze and break off and it won't make any noise even though the shaft is turning. |
