Does anyone know why I have problems filling my freshwater onboard tank with my 12 volt whale pump?  I can only get approx. 2 to 3 litres in before water starts to backflow out of filler cap.

Welcome to the forum.

Is this a new problem or has it always been the case? I don't know if the configuration is the same but I had a similar issue on my Vanmaster after it came back from service. Found that they had left the isolation valve set that is used when connecting a direct water supply.

Hi Shaf

Mine is a 1996 I do have paperwork and if you are prepared to pay for copying and postage happy to let you have a copy of mine.

Let me have a contact number or e. mail and we can correspond.

Hi Shaf

I have one next to the main fuse control box which has the water tank guage and the battery guage on if that's what you mean? 

hi vanroyceman

 how would you want to do this about the paperwork my email  is lucy.rafferty at btinertnet.com thanks for this

Hi Wiganer all you need to do for the alarm is insert your barrel key into the lock (mine is on the control panel) turn it clockwise to the on position then lock the van door.  When you re-enter the van use the key to turn it anticlockwise (which is off).

I am willling to photocopy my paperwork and send to you if you pay for copying ad postage.  If you want to provide your e.mail I will contact you via that.
