Kitchen Water pump issue

Post by IanJohnson » Mon Jul 06, 2015 8:52 pm

I have a Bongo converted to a camper by Imperial Car Company. The water pump sounds like its working, but water is coming out of the tank filling point rather than the kitchen tap when turned on. Any suggestions where I can take this for mending? I live in North East London and would like to avoid a trip to Dorset. Thanks.

Is there not a lid / cap to go on the filling point ?

Odd. The outlet from the tank is at the bottom into a 12V Whale pump that lifts the water into the tap, it's difficult to imagine how water can be pressurised out through the filler instead :?

Probably best to speak directly to Autovan Services who actually do the conversion, explain which conversion it is (Lulworth, Purbeck etc) and the symptoms.
