Hi All
Please be gentle with me, I'm new to motorhomes.
I have 05 Ci Carioca 644
I haven't had it long and as I've said I'm new to all this and don't really know how things should work so here goes.
The dump valve (something I knew nothing about) next to the water heater under the FB decided to open and I lost all my fresh water.
When I tried to close it by lifting the red button, it just kept flicking back down to open again as if it was energized?
Left it a few days and now it operates as I think it should ie stays shut when I lift the said red button.
Now it might have been a glitch that's sorted it self out but thats not really what I want to know.
On the 3 or 4 occasions I've been away in the van I've had no issues but to run a tap, hot or cold, I first have to turn on the pump at the control panel then open said tap. As soon as I turn on the pump I can hear it kicking in and I use what water I need, then turn off the tap, but the pump continues to run until I turn it off at the control panel.
I really want to know is this normal procedure?
I have a canal boat and the pump remains on all the time and only kicks in when I open a tap, then shuts off when I close the tap. A flow switch controls the pump automatically.
Should my van be the same?
Can anyone on here advertise
Many thanks
Daz
