My father is going to be staying in our r-pod 193 for a few days. So, I hooked up power and the water hose to my fresh water intake so that he could run the air and have running water. I turned on the water pump and ran the water for a few minutes to bleed the air out and thought everything was fine. However, when he tried to use the sink later, no water came out. The water is still turned on at the source and it is still flowing to the RV. Water still flows in the shower and the toilet. It's just the kitchen sink.

Any ideas?

Check the aerator on the faucet, sometimes they get clogged and the water wont flow. We clean ours a couple times a season.

+1 to Leo. If the water is running everywhere else, it's almost certainly just that the aerator is clogged.

+2 Your aerator is the likely culprit. If you haven't already, flush your hot tank when you get a chance. Just be careful to relive the pressure on it before you pull the anode rod.

That did the trick. Thanks for helping out this newbie. It's my first RV and we just got it this Spring. So, everything is new to me.
