As newbies we have been using our new bailey Olympus every weekend for the past 8 weeks and been loving it.
We have just returned from our first trip south of the border and whilst doing the dishes before leaving this morning we seemed to run out of water!!!
I checked the aqua roll and it was 3/4 full. I took the whale thingy out of the roll and it seemed fine. I unplugged it from the caravan wall and replaced it. I turned the pump switch on and off and on again but still no water.
Could it be the fuse? Or is it more likely to be the whale.
Can anyone help.

Can you check the terminals with a multimeter or a test lamp to see if power is getting to the socket where you plug it in?

Is it only the kitchen sink? That happened to us and it was fluff/stuff blocking the tap. We used a spanner thing to take very end of it off and worked a treat. Got the advice on this forum after much head scratching!! Good luck with fixing it ;)

Thanks guys.
I took the whale into our dealer who tested it.
There was no electrics working on it so I got a new one under warranty.
