No City Water In Bus... - orbitalsolutions - 01-06-2006 19:07
I had my FC connected to city water. Everything worked fine this
morning. I went back to the bus several hours later and there was no
water, at any tap.
I have pressure at the city water hook-up at the bus. Seems like it is
cloged somewhere.
Any thoughts? I turned off the pressured water and had to leave. I'll
be able to get back to it Sunday and see what I can find.

James,
There is a screen and a check valve where you connect the hose to
the bus.

Hi James:
Check the input screen where you hook up the city water, it can be stopped
up. If nothing found, then replacing the pressure regulator may be needed.
Get one from BB but you don't have to replace the entire housing. On each
side of the regulator in the housing in your Coach, there are 2 small round
holes. Taking a large set of external snap ring pliers, insert the prongs
on each side of the regulator in the holes and un screw the regulator.
There will be a spring in there so be careful. Then do the same with the
new regulator and lube it lightly with some white grease or petroleum jelly
and insert the new regulator into the old housing. About a 10 minute job in
all. Also you might check the air blow out switch to be sure it is not in
the on position. The 2 way valve at the input of your water heater can do
this as well. You can remove the 4 screws on the end cap facing the front
of the Coach and that will expose the shuttle. With a pair of needle nose
pliers, pull in the end of the shuttle to free it, then push on it a few
times and be sure that it seats properly, replace the end cap and that is done.
Safe travels,

Thanks, Dave and Ralph. I replaced a clogged screen at the inlet
connection and the water is running freely again.
