Good morning
I got avondale Windsor 550 2007 last week the water pump wouldn't work the red pump switch in the caravan looks like no power is getting to it
I removed the pump and tried it to the caravan battery and it worked so I put it back and nothing checked all the fues and seem all good can any.one help please thanks
As well is two words!

Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.
My guess is a 12volt fuse gone or more likely a bad connection somewhere. This is where a cheap multimeter is invaluable.
I also would look to see what switches it on, one of the taps micro-switches failed, - try another tap, or if it uses a pressure switch, check the supply to, the switch itself and the setting. Good luck.

There are two ways to switch the pump on, the older way was to have micro-switches in each and every tap. You can see if yours is like that by looking underneath for the wires dangling down from the tap body. If none, then the other way is by pressure drop sensing when you open any of the taps. This uses a pressure switch in the system somewhere, sometimes it's in the pump body itself but it may be separate or built into the water inlet. Either way it has two wires goung to it to power the pump.

Thank you when you say check the taps what.do you mean
If the taps have microswitches you need to turn each one on at a time. The microswitch on one tap may have failed but others may work. It's unlikely they have all failed at the same time so if none of them turn the pump on you will have to go through the pump circuit with a multimeter. It could be a broken connection somewhere.
