We have had a 1992 Elddis Hurricane 200ex for four years now and no problems after winter lay-up.
This year though, it would appear we did not drain down properly before winter, and had the shower taps popup from the pipes, which was easily remedied, and now the bathroom sink taps are very temperamental - only working after some playing around with taps, which I suspect is faulty micro switches which I will replace this week-end.
What appears to be a more difficult problem however, is the water leak from the water inlet. When the tap is switched on inside the van and the pump starts to run, water gushes out from the connection outside the van. I have change the "O" ring on the hose end, and it has not stopped it.
Has anyone any idea what might be causing this problem ? I cannot see any cracks in the housing myself, but cannot imagine any other fault that might cause this leakage.
Can anyone help ? Do I need a new housing for the filter etc or is the problem likely to be more internal ??
Thanks in anticipation.
