main water pump light wont go off when switched off

[steven fitzsimons]

Hi

I have a Bailey Cadiz 2018 when i drain the water tank and switch everything of when its in storage the light on the control panel for the water pump light stays on ??
Has anyone got any ideas why its staying on as it will drain my battery and i have only just got a new one , at the moment i have disconnected the battery.

many thanks

Steve

Welcome Steven.

That’s very odd. I haven’t got a clue on that one.

Thanks J for trying

It will stay on as the pressure switch is asking for the pump , even without a pump fitted. the LED will be on ( the LED doesn't monitor current only voltage at the pump contacts)

Also switch off your master switch, that should kill 12V supply the caravan systems, such as lights and oven ignitor and the pump supply.

Hi Ian
So my question is will it drain the battery if its in storage for a couple of months , or is there a way to turn the light off , as you can tell I'm new to caravanning, thank you for your reply

I switch off everything but the light still stayed on

The evidence you have provided suggests that an abnormal situation has arisen, as the light is not responding as we would expect. we are therefore guessing.

Problems like this where there is an abnormality, are difficult to accurately diagnose over a forum. We might have a lucky educated guess that might point to the problem, but its far easier if the technician to be able to look and probe in person. An experienced electrician would use an iterative approach where a few checks will quickly lead to the likely cause.

You could always pull the 12V battery fuse in the EDU( second from right in attached photo)

There are times when the door is open and the sun shining that I look at the LED for my pump and I'm convinced it's on..............But it's just refractions.🫣
