Periodically, our water pump will cycle. I have searched for sources of small water leaks, but have not found any evidence of a leak. This may occur several times during the night, or not at all. I have checked the outside shower, bays below the fresh water tank, under sinks, ice maker. The pump lives under our bed, so it can wake us when it cycles at nite. We have turned the pump off when we retire for the nite, and in the AM, when we turn it on again, it may or may not cycle. I'm open to any fresh ideas, like for example, is there a check valve in the pump? Flaky pressure switch? TIA Perhaps it is the switch?

Adjusting a Shurflo pump pressure switch.
- You don't need to take the pump out of the camper – or take the pressure switch apart!
- Look for the allen screw on the top of the pressure switch.
- Turning clockwise will result in a more sensitive switch (more likely to cycle)
