Micro Lite 21. Water is draining from my fresh water tank and I have never put any in it. It won't stop. Dealer was working on my kitchen drawer before this happened.

Welcome to the forum. You will find that almost any problem you have can be solved on this forum. If your unit is at the dealer, they should be able to solve the problem. Is the unit connected to city water. If so the backflow valve in the water pump is not seated properly.
Make sure water pump is off
Disconnect the city water
Open a faucet and let it tun until it stops
turn on water pump
let water run for a minute
shut off water pump
reconnect to city water.
Note if there is water in the water tank and the drain valve is open, water may still drain out for a while until the tank is empty.

Thanks for the quick reply. This still didn't work. I tried it twice, once with water in the tank and once empty. Still drizzles out of the tank.

Where is the water draining from? is it the drain valve on the outside on the trailer where you would normally drain the water tank?

Yes. I got directions from the tech at my dealer and it worked. Turn off water in, open faucet and leave pump on for three minutes.

Thanks for your help. Any idea why this happened? I've never put water into the potable connection.
