Water pump problems

[Landcruiser]

Please can anyone help,
I have a swift conqueror 645 2010
The on board water tank was very slow to fill, I thought it was the external Truma pump being the course, this was not the case.
I found a solenoid fitted to the supply pipe which was very hot, i removed it and found a blocked filter inside the fitting,cleaned and re assembled, but now the on board pump doesn’t work correctly I have to bleed the system out from the shower to make the main pup work, can any one out there please advise. Many Thanks

Is the inboard pump a Truma product or Whale?

When you say "a blocked filter inside" are you sure it wasnt a non return valve?

No ,the on board pump is a flojet.

When I looked in to the end of what I think is solenoid valve I found a mesh filter that was blocked with a black substance, just before this valve is a pressure switch that controls the water entering the van from the water barrel outside.
Hope this help s.

Hello Landcruiser.

I sense I and the other members are having some difficulty in understanding the symptoms your trying to describe. It could be the were not using the same terminology.


Here is a typical arrangement for a water system with an internal tank
