I'm dewinterizing our 178. Water is flowing just great from the shower and toilet, but only drips from the hot and cold taps at the sink. Any help out there?

Thanks!

You might check the aerator on the faucet. That fooled me once.

Thanks Jim. That's exactly what it was. A piece of thin black plastic had plugged the small hole in the aerator. You've saved me more frustration, time, and $$!!

Many Thanks,

John

I had the same problem last weekend w/ my R-Pod 195. I had just gotten it back from some warranty work and set up and just a dribble from the kitchen faucet. I didn't have time to get into it, but then remembered this forum and read your post. Just today came back to the river/lake where my camper is for the summer and took the end off the faucet and the screen was blocked with what looked like pipe dope/plumbers putty. I cleaned it off and it works great again. My one year warranty was up on the 15th so I was about to go crazy. It was a very easy fix.
