Hi,
This is my first MH (1987 Coachmen Leprechaun, C class, 26''1/2). When I bought it, it was supposed to be in running condition... Almost everything is fixed now. The remaining problem is the hot water. Right after I bought it the water pump jammed so I changed it. Put some water in the tank, started the pump, opened the faucet, had running water for only a few seconds and the pump kept on pumping. Found out the cold water line from the faucet in the toilet room was disconnected (I'm very happy about that water spill ). Put that back together, put water in the tank, started the pump, openned the faucets and hoped. Now, I do have running water, no spills, the water pump only starts when needed but... I do not have hot water. In the many attempts I made the water heater only started 3 times ran for a few moments and stopped. I don't know how long it needs to run to heat the water but for the time it ran I had no hot water.
What should I look for?
Thanks
Daniel
