No kitchen water pressure

[mickmanor]

Looked at many posts but none the same. I drained the lines and did a fresh fill at the campground. Now, bathroom and outside shower work good for hot and cold water. No water at kitchen sink. Looked for reset procedure, can’t find it. Any ideas?

First thing to verify is that the aerator on the kitchen faucet is not clogged. Test for water output when the aerator is removed -- does water come out?

Are you on city water or water pump?

Removed center cap, tried handles, nothing.

No water hot or cold?

Removed "Cap"? Just to be sure we are using the same language - the aerator is a small metal ring at the end of the faucet spout, screwed up into the end of the spout, not visible from above. Unscrew by hand, then see if you have water with the aerator out.

Presuming you're using the water pump (you didn't indicate whether you're using the pump or city water), and the fact that the bathroom and outside shower fixtures work fine when using the pump, the pump is seemingly in functional order.

Does the pump run:

- when all the faucets in the camper are off?
- when you turn on the kitchen faucet?

The plumbing in the TM is fairly simple. You've got either an obstruction (debris, closed/broken valve, sharp kink) or a leak somewhere.

If no hot or cold water, and aerator OK, then the problem has got to be within the faucet assembly itself. If you remove the knobs and pull out each valve assembly, you can see how the water flows up from each supply pipe, through each valve, and the two streams (hot and cold) merge so they flow into the spigot. The problem has to be at, or beyond, this merge point. All this happens within the faucet.

I can't think of anything that would cut off both hot and cold flow at the kitchen faucet, but allow both to flow to all other faucets ... unless a previous owner installed stop valves in the kitchen water lines. Is this a new problem? Did it ever work properly?

And good for hot and cold in bathroom. Nothing in kitchen sink and sprayer. Sprayer hose goes back towards water heater Puzzling.

In order to help us help you, it would be really helpful if you could specifically answer the questions we've asked:

Does the pump run:

- when all the faucets in the camper are off?
- when you turn on the kitchen faucet?

Is this a new problem?

Did it ever work properly?

What do you mean by, "Sprayer hose goes back towards water heater"?
