No water to sinks

Post by Remusny1 »

No water in cockpit or head sinks. Water tank is mostly full. Pump toggle switch on dashboard activated but no water flow. Filter looks clean so guessing pump is shot but maybe I am missing something. Boat is a 2004 282 I just bought.

After you have determined out power from the lower breakers under dash “ water pressure “ is good, add a couple of gallons of water to your port fill. In the event your gauges aren’t reading correctly.
Yes then it’s shurflow pump replacement time. It’s located portside engine compartment forward if the bulkhead.
You’ll peel back the foam insulation and remove the white panels. You will need to get into the bilge for this . Have someone top side to hand you tools and to help pull you out😎

Hellooooo R1. Welcome to the Cobaltchat forum. So glad you found us!

We have a 2005 263 that probably uses the same pump.
If you have checked the breakers and proper switches, (ours has a transom switch that needs to be in the up position in order for all power to operate in the cabin and helm), then you probably have a bad pump. The rubber diaphragm tends to get old and go bad.

We replaced our pump last year. Purchased one at a local RV store.

Here are some pics...

Thanks for the replies guys. It is the water pump that has failed and later this week I am going to replace it.
