have you checked the pressure switch

First you need to work out if you have a pressure switched system , look underneath the taps , do you have wires going to the taps ?
When you turn on the taps do you hear the water pump running ?
or does it start then stop then start again .

Adjust Whale Pressure Switch

Ok set the pressure switch so the pump doesn't run , then fully open a tap , now adjust the pressure switch so the pump starts and runs without clicking off , now close the tap , the pump should now turn off ( there may be a click now and then where the pump is just maintaining pressure , but it's nothing to worry about ) ( if it clicks alot with the tap off turn the pressure adjustment switch a bit more  anti-clockwise .
Let us know how you get on .
