Default Fresh water system not working 94 3200 SCR

Hello. Looking for help regarding our fresh water system. Replaced deck faucet, transom faucet and bathroom faucet and hot water tank. Everything worked great... For a day. Turned on tap and only a tickle came out. Pump works fine. It seemed like tank that I just filled was empty, so I refilled it. Was able to get some water to flow, out but not like it was supposed to be..then nothing. Any ideas? I don't see any noticeable leaks. Thanks for an suggestions.

Is the pressure pump cycling on and off?

Could be a pressure leak or a clog.

If the pump was bad you'd get less than a trickle... Possible clogged or pinched line after the pump?

Actually, no, I wouldn't expect to get more than a trickle if the pump wasn't working properly.

At the risk of speaking for Philbo, I think what he's asking is; When the water system is on and the tank is full, does the water pump shut off when it comes up to pressure? Then when you open a faucet, does the pump cycle on properly? Then when you close the faucet it shuts off when the system comes up to pressure again? (That is what I'm wondering anyway).

It sounds more like you're dealing with a blockage. The first place I would look is the filter on the pump itself. Those pumps are made to run dry, so if was running for a period of time while the tank was dry, i doubt it would hurt it.

You have a 94 3200scr, and you said your water tank was full and now its empty and you refilled it? My 95 3200 scr has a 30gal water tank, thats a lot of water. Its one thing to say you used it all, but it sounds like your unsure if you did.
