Waterless in doolin county Clare

· Posted: 14.04.2019 · #1

Help needed!
We have lost our water supply.
Pump is not working, may have been clogged by debris in tank.
Whale submersible, onboard tank, pressure switch.
We definitely have power to pump.
Does anyone know any local dealers we see vanderlust in enistymon really near us. Could they help
We are down here from Tyrone, motorhome under warranty (2018 Bailey advance) but dealer in co. Antrim.
Thanks, dermot

Cara motorhomes (near Rathkeale I think)
Derek Walsh Kildimo co limerick
As Dave has posted Anchor point,

Donaghey's do a next day courier service aswell, which is very handy,

I'd say vanderlust would have a pump in stock,

Are you in a campsite in Doolin?
Maybe the site owner may know somebody local to get you out of trouble

Derek Walsh has the Baileys caravan dealership for the south.
Ring Cathorina in the morning and ask for Sean.
They will sort you out.

There is a gent in Ennis, chris Howard who converts vans and does maintenance and repairs. I can connect with him on Facebook messenger and get his number if the other suggestions don’t pan out.
Good luck

It may seem like a stupid suggestion but try the pump button on the control panel as it can sometimes be off when you put the master button on, if you know what I mean

Big shout out to David from vanderlust, rigged up a pump for us, had to be persuaded to take money for labour. A real gentleman. Making some cracking looking van conversions in his workshop too.
We needed new pump and pressure switch, debris from onboard tank seems to have killed the pump.
Will probably be a warranty repair when I get home, the van is less than a year old.
Thanks again for all the helpful suggestions. Hopefully I can return the favour if anyone stuck in Tyrone.

I wouldn't mention any debris if I was pursuing a warranty claim, all you know is that the pump failed and had to be replaced.

Reason I mentioned debris is that it came from the tank itself, a known issue, Bailey did not clean out plastic dwarf from new tanks, acknowledged fault aftercpractical motorhome found the fault

I’m sure you will have no problem getting it sorted under warranty if it is a known issue. At least you are sorted and can enjoy the rest of your trip
Ps the weather is to improve too

Love the miss spelling,

I'm smiling at the taught of him swimming in the tank trying to block the filter in order for someone to take off the lid and let him out.

Sorry Dermot ,not taking the Pee ,but couldn't resist that.
