Default Water Leaks When Water Pump is On

Greetings all,

Just returned from a camping trip and noticed the fresh water is leaking when the water pump switch is on. The area where it leaks is in the rear left near the water line (I think). Do I have a leaking seal or a busted line? When the water pump switch is off I have no leaks. I see no leaks near the water tanks.

Thanks

By "rear left" I assume you mean the rear of the trailer on the drivers side? Are you seeing water in the trailer or under it? Some people including me have had leaking outside shower connections. You will need to cut the caulking around the outside shower door to remove it from the side of the trailer. If your shower is located where mine is you can also check connections under the tub.

If this is not where your leak is happening, you may wish to provide more information so members can help you troubleshoot it.

Thank you for the reply,

The leak is outside near the back left stabilizer. I see there are water lines near there (I think they are water lines). I attached a photo and circled the area where I see water dripping from when the water pump is on.

I also had a leak there. It was the outside shower. The shop that repaired it said that it was common for a small amount of water to stay in the fitting-when the temps dropped it easily froze due to a lack of insulation causing cracks
