Default Water pump question

1998 2800scr

New boat to us this spring. Noticed this evening that water pump was constantly running. This is the pump for sink and vanity faucet. I'm guessing the pump should only come on when there is a call for water at the faucet.
Seems like the tank is low. Cold water started to sputter out at kitchen faucet but fine at vanity.
Any ideas?
Thanks. BB

You should have a deck cap labeled Water... the same for Gas and Waste.

If the pressure pump is running continuously you have a pressure leak somewhere.. Do you have water in your bilge? Any dripping faucets?

Glad you figured it out and it did not cost anything.
