The picture you show of the whale water inlet is the one without the pressure switch - they use the same moulding for both units, also you'll find that your one only has 2 spade contacts while the one equipped with the pressure switch has 3.

So either you have got micro switches on the taps or somewhere between the inlet and the Tee off for the water heater you have a pressure switch like the one posted earlier

Have you checked under the taps for ay wires,if they have Micro switches you wont see any wires,the Micro switches are under the hot and cold knobs,and the wires go through the tap unit,

there are no wires at all pete. if i open the valve for on board tank the external pump stays on until  it says tank is full on my control panel then turns off , but if i shut valve off to on board tank the pump keeps running and the control panel says none does this mean icant just run on external pump and must always use onboard tank and internal pump thanks for your help

what do you mean when you say you shut the valve off to the onboard tank?ours turns off itself when its full ,then runs from the inboard tank,we only press the button to refill the inboard tank when its empty ,the inboard pump takes over automatically
