Hi everyone
We have just bought a 1991 swift Capri motorhome and are struggling to figure which type of hose connector I need...
We can hear the pump trying to go when we press the switch so im presuming we have an onboard pump ??
And there is no electrical connectors in the housing so I'm thinking it's a truma ultraflow??
Here is the socket...

And I think this is the connector I need....

Any help would be very appreciated.
Mike n Sam

All you need is a hose.

XVI yes?

As well is two words!
How does a sage know everything about everything? or does he? or does he just think he does?
Remember, if you buy something you bought it, not brought it.

That's the filling point for your on board tank, as Blue mentioned just fill it up from a hose pipe.

You’d have a separate inlet for a Whale type pump to lock onto, to use on a fully serviced pitch. A 1991 MH is unlikely to have one.
I am surprised that your water inlet doesn’t appear to have a locking cap though.

at fiona that connection point is under a lockable flap.
Here is a picture of my control panel if that helps any?
(It does appear that is a gauge for the onboard water tank??)

Also there was 2x aqua roll carriers in the van when we purchased her, which was what made us think it was fed from the carriers and needed the inlet connector.
Thank you all for the info!
I'm gonna go see if I can find a manual for the swift control panel...wish me luck!
