We bought a used camper and I'm just now getting the opportunity to de-winterize it (and since it's our first camper -- familiarizing myself with all the stuff)
The water heater (which was just replaced a year or two ago) is confusing me.
I put the drain plug in, switched the bypass (I heard the water flow in), lit the pilot, but now NO water flows from my sink when I turn on the hot faucet. The cold faucet flows just fine, and the hot water faucet worked prior to the bypass.
Is there something else I should be checking that may be preventing the hot water to flow?
By the way, I turned off the pilot light / heater until I figure this one out. I don't want to fry any water heater components...
Please advise??
 
You have to wait a considerable amount of time for those small lines to fill a 6 gal HWH. When full, open the nearest faucet to the HWH until water flows. Then go open up the nest and so on. Is it possible you have a shut off valve under the sink not open?  Good luck
 
I found the second valve tucked away behind the hoses.
It works now. Thank you.
