Just set up at camp sight with no hook ups. Running off battery and generator. No water at kitchen sink, cold or hot. The water pump runs as the water in bathroom works. Any ideas on a fix?

I have a 2017 rpod 179. Thanks!

Check the aerator in the faucet. Happened to us a few times when the pod was new. Little itty bitty grains of sand were clogging it.

99.9% aerator. I leave ours off.

So I cleaned the areator and hot works very good but cold is only half half the volume. I am hooked up to shore water with out the water pump on. Any ideas?

Do you have the same pressure difference with the shower? If not I'd pull the faucet when you get home and take a look.

Debris in the cold water line that got hung up in the valve? You may want to get a bucket, disconnect the cold water line from the sink, put a bucket in a position to catch the water, turn the pump on to push some water through. If it flows ok, then the blockage may ben in the faucet. Take it apart and see if there is something stuck in the valve.
