New found water leak

Hi all,

I have a Rockwood A122, 2013 model.

In mid-cross country jaunt and hooked up, once again, to a pressurized water hook-up in a campground. Within minutes, saw water overflowing outside under the city water input. Looked under sink and found some water on the floor around where the pump is located.

Decided perhaps the water pressure was too much for my little camper (I did have a simple 45psi regulator attached), so I filled my fresh water tank and turned on the pump and more water flows in.

No leak around the filter. It seems to be coming from somewhere either behind the pump or in the pump itself.

The pressure at this campground is incredibly high.

I've been using city water hook up for 9 days on this trip and this stop is the first issue I've had.

Could the pressure have caused a leak somewhere, even with a regulator? Any other thoughts?

Thanks.

Some of my connections in our salem are threaded couplings. I've had 2 of them vibrate loose. One under the kitchen sink and one near the pump.
I'd check for those first. Especially since it occurred after days of use. Which is what mine did.

Since it happened with city and tank water I'd look at connections under and around the sink.
