The warmer pump quit working last night. Got up this morning to no water. Tank is still 2/3 full. Been boondocking for 3 days with no problems. Suggestions???

Water pump is 12VDC, so check the fuses in the fuse box and see if there is one near the pump. Also check to see if strainer/filter is plugged.
Plus make sure you have water

Also check your wire twist connections that they’re tight. I just replaced ours a couple days ago. The original was sounding ‘ratchety’ when building pressure. The pumps are small enough, so I carried a spare. Just a thought.

Do you have single switch to power the pump or multiple. The relay module for multiple switches can fail. Test light will tell the story test at motor and hot side of switch. It's been a real long time but I remember pulling my pump motor apart to get it working . I can't remember if it was brushes or a magnet became unglued. I fixed it with whatever tools and supplies I had at camp. It lasted about 15 more years. Next time it failed I just chucked it. I think the motor was still working just wouldn't pump.
