All of this talk about water pumps reminded me that the one for my sink
is playing up. I never used it but being the neurotic sort of person I
am (Always touching the fridge vent on the way past checking it's still
on), every now and then I turned the faucet for a second and always
heard the pump.

A few weeks ago I decided to try it for real. I filled the water tank
and turned on the faucet. Some water came out and the pump was running,
after 5 seconds it stopped. I assumed the pump had gone or a fuse so I
turned it off. 10 minutes later I tried again and once again the pump
ran, water came out then it stopped again. Now nothing I do will get it
to run again.

Does it have a pressure switch like a travel trailer would.

If so, could it be blocked and have enough pressure stored to keep the
pump from kicking in, even weeks later?

Is there a fuse I'm missing?

On another matter, the seam on the drivers side has rusted enough to pop
away from the body. I can see fiberglass behind it. Will a welding shop
still be able to weld this back?

Thank you
