When washing out the
Bushtracker shower at home,the water pump ( for the shower) ran for about 5 minutes and then just STOPPED. No noise, no humming, nothing. The pump was very hot to touch, Water was still available in the tank. Has anyone experienced this before and if so what was the problem and solution.
Regards AL.

check the suction filter on the pump for blockages.

There have been several roports of similar occurrences by members of the
BOG group and many with detailed descriptions of fixes.
I recommend full (very affordable) membership of the B O G site, and then download a copy of the
BOG Bible, and other very useful resource materials that can be located using the
site search facility on both the current and archived records.
Hope this helps

The water pump is up and going. Checked for power to all the right points, all good. Took the rear motor cover off to see if the motor span freely ( it was so hot, I thought it may have sieged up) it was free. I was given an old pump this week so I swapped over the pressure switch assy and that fixed the problem.
