Could be a faulty microswitch in the shower tap.

You might get a better answer/response by posting in the repair sub-forum.

What age is your caravan?? Presuming its of the type whereby each tap has a microswitch, which could be faulty, as mentioned above?

In which case, short the switch out with a length of wire to see if that will cause water to flow.
