Water Shutoff?

Hello i had my 3170ds winterize and i not want to get it ready for the season.
i put water in the holding tank and it runs but acts like it is shut off going to the pump not a lot of pressure and lots of air. I cannot hear the pump running is it possible to have a valve shut off or the motor turned off? Any suggestions.

First check the valve that is on water line that connects winterizing hose to pump . It sounds like it may be set to the winterizing hose instead of the FW tank. Very common problem when dewinterizing.

Only one valved

It looks like the only valve is to the drain line.
I made sure that was closed and still not working great. It is working i am starting to think the pump is going bad...It does cycle but not alot of pressure. Dont see any other valves.
