Water pump wont stop

[Tony S]

The water pump will stop when taps are off, but every 10 seconds it starts up for a second then stops. Then again and so on. I checked all taps for air but still does it. Anyone have any idea??

You've got a leak somewhere or a defect in the pump.

Did you purge all the air from the water heater relief valve?

[Tony S]

Can't find any leaks, must be a bad pump.

[Tony S]

Yes, let air out of valve, opened all taps.

The pressure switch may be faulty.

Pressure switch inside the pump?

Oh okay. I will have to have it looked at.

That's for all the help, turns out the low point drain did have a small drip under the trailer. I tightened it up and the problem stopped.
