no hot water
Another item that will cause this, is the 3 way valve with the air blow out
line attached at the bottom of the cold water inlet inlet. This valve is
famous for sticking. Take the water pressure off the Coach, remove 4 screws
on the end cap, pull the valve spool with a pair of needle nose pliers
toward you and replace the cap.

Safe travels,
