Water Shutoff

Can someone let me know where the shutoff, is to bypass the water pump. Under the bed?

That is going to be specific to the model and year of your camper.

Can you share the year/make/model of what you have?

Can you tell us more of what you're trying to do? I've never heard of a shutoff to bypass the water pump.

When I hooked to city water, the tank overflowed. I read on an earlier post, that there is a shutoff to bypass the tank/pump

You might try to find that post. I’ve read about 1M posts here with no sign of that. It’s a check valve in your pump that’s not holding pressure. Some people install their own inline check valve but I’ve never heard of a pump bypass.

I'm not sure of a shutoff, but here are some ideas to try/check:
