Hi I have a 2006 Pennine Sterling Folding Camper whilst away last week my water stopped pumping.
It is a Whale switch on my sink and cooker box that you turn it was working ok then just stopped any ideas.
Thanks.
Barry.

There will be a 12 volt fuse which may have possibly blown so check that first and replace if necessary. If the fuse proves to be satisfactory then undertake a pump circuit test as mentioned above but the leisure battery will need sufficient voltage to power the water pump as it requires more power to operate than the 12 volt lighting or radio etc.

Give the pump a gentle tap several times with the handle of a screwdriver or similar. Sometimes they seize and need a tap to free them up.
