If your taps have micro switches, which sound like they do, that is probably the problem. If they are not working, the water pump will not switch on. But if the bathroom ones are then the pump will deliver water to the system and you will probably get water out of the other taps if they are opened. Walk through on how to change a switch Here

Does it work if you wiggle the pump on the outside of the van? the connectors on the pump may look like this :o. the copper connectors tend to get pushed together over time and do not make a good connection. Try gently increasing the gap between the connectors with a small screwdriver (careful not to snap them).

Also have a look at the copper connections on the caravan and pump, give them a clean with steel wool or a bit of emery paper, it could be a simple bad connection
