A member de-winterizing a 2015 Winnebago View reported that no water was coming from the faucets and believed three water pumps were not engaging. Other members clarified that the coach likely has one water pump controlled by three switches, possibly through a pump controller or relay.

Members suggested checking whether the freshwater tank has water, whether the pump is actually running, and whether winterizing valves are still set to draw antifreeze instead of water from the tank. The...

I'm following the directions to de-winterize my Winnebago View, but NO water comes out of the faucets. Apparently the water pumps (3) are not engaging.......what ideas do you have to get the pumps working so I can remove the anti-freeze and get fresh water working.
Help with ideas please...
 
my question isn;t about how many there are, but as to why they are not working, and pumping the water from the fresh water tank into the sinks...
 
One pump, co-located with the fresh water tank, find it and start tracing voltage with a voltmeter.
EDIT: Looking at the View manual, the pump may not be beside the tank, should be piped near it though.

can you clarify what you mean by tracing teh voltage...am I checking the voltage at each of the two water pump switches?
 
If you are de-winterizing, you know about the valves... is there water in the tank?
Is the pump running?
Voltage at the pump when there should be (switch "on")? Multiple switches usually means a pump relay.

Last chance Randy....
 
If you have 3 switches for the water pump, then there is a pump controller that those connect to. Do you know if the one pump is actually running? It may be that the problem is not the pump. Here is a typical plumbing diagram.

can you clarify what you means by valve ?
I suspect that the reference is to the valve usually found between the water tank and the pump, which is there to allow the pump suction to be from a jug of antifreeze.

To determine if the pump is running and also to check that valve, you first must locate the water pump and the freshwater tank that supplies it.
 
I posted a couple of days ago, however the post disappeared or never made it.

If the OP will give us the year and exact model View, for example, 2010 View 24J, then we can look up the plumbing drawings for it on the WBO website.
