Yep, no valve. It would be in that white hose connected to the left side of the pump just before the strainer.

Just returned from the dealer service department. Water pump was determined to be faulty. Hard to say if it was just a random issue, or related to the dealer maybe missing something when they winterized the pod last fall. Regardless, they installed the new pump at no cost to me in under 30 minutes and I was on my way.

I will have them do the winterization in the fall again and learn more next time what they really do....maybe water was left in the pump?

Unlikely, if they used RV antifreeze, since they would need the pump to push it through the system.  If they only blew air through the system then the pump is out of the loop and would have water in it.

I had a similar problem to this and it turned out to be the sink faucet head being clogged. Before each trip I now clean that out and have no problems.

I had no water & it was a crimped hose next to the pump.

One more thing to check on.  If your city water valve isn't sealing correctly you would end up with a ton of water outside on the ground and no pressure at the sink's valve.
