Why does it always happen when you are away😉.
The onboard pump , new last year, took ages to turn off. Normal is 5/ 10 seconds. Cold water pressure took ages to pressure up. Must be the three O rings on the Whalemaster caravan housing. Two at the front , one behind the face plate. Normally the official Whale rings are circa £5. No use using ones from Aldi box of 500. Here in Northumberland had a 35 mile drive south to North East Caravans Ltd Ashington. Loads of spares but not what I wanted . They had about 20 of the old micro switches but not the whale O ring kit. So I bought a whole new unit £40 and cannibalised the bits needed.
All seems ok but if not , tomorrow out come sthe new pump and a debris check on the pipe filters.
