Hi

Just got back home and whilst away and found we had developed a problem of no water when we got to the site. Changed the fuse listed as `pumpe' on the EBL but it didnt make a difference.
I've just took the water pump out and sat it in a bowl of water then put the wires across a 12v supply and it didnt do anything. Has the pump died?? It is a Tandem 19l twin pump on my Hymer B544. There are Reich ones listed on various sites that look like are an equivalent.

Thanks

Graham

If dead, this is the correct pump, ensure you buy it complete with the NRV ..

when changing take note of polarity, Hymer use Blue as Positive + and Brown as Negative. - so it will look odd.. colours are reversed , see photo

get it wrong it will still pump but with reduced flow.

You will also need two new spade connectors..

Thanks for the info on the correct Reich pump. I'll order one tomorrow as I am away on Friday and want to get this sorted asap.

Just make sure you order the Reich one and not the Hymer badged one which is the same article but about double the price, I found out the hard way!
