We have a 2017 Fuzion 371 toy hauler - we recently dry camped and the water pump pulsed on/off every time we used a faucet. I did some research and found that the water pump needs to be adjusted. Well that would be great if I could locate it. The manufacturer was no help - Can anyone tell me where it is located? Thank you

Before adjusting the water pump. Are you 100 % sure you got all air out of lines. All my RVs take awhile to get all air out and thats how they act until it's gone.

I think someone mentioned on here that Fuzion locates theirs behind the convenience center and behind panel in storage compartment. That's where mine is also, according to tech, though I did notice a removable panel under or sink in the 1/2 bath that I need to check see whats in there.

We used the pump for 3 days and it pulsated the entire time.

Run it and listen to the sound. Thst should at least get you to the general, if not specific, location.

It is located behind the panel in the front storage compartment. It is on the curb side behind the water heater. if you remove the carpet covered panel (runs from front to back of rv) that attaches to the plastic panel in the convenience center you can get to it from there.

I put water in the fresh water tank and ran all the faucets and toilets. The pump ran steady when using all except for the shower. When turning on the shower it pulsed. I let it run for several minutes. Any ideas why only the shower pulses?
Thanks

First, I'd suggest you remove the showerhead from the hose and see if it stops the "short cycling". Chances are it will. If so, it's the GPM of the flow restrictor in the showerhead that's causing the pump to cycle.

The shower causes the pump to cycle probably because of the "flow restrictor" in the showerhead. Depending on the amount of water flowing through the specific faucet, the pump will either deliver the volume by running all the time or if less water volume is required by the faucet in use, it will run to supply the pressure and then turn off until the pressure drops and the pump cycles to repressurize the system. You won't "hurt your pump" by using it as it is, but if it "bothers you" you could consider installing an accumulator tank at the pump output. That will "buffer the pressure" and stop the "short cycling" caused by the flow restrictor in the showerhead. You might, if you're using the OEM showerhead, consider changing it for an Oxygenics brand. They offer a different "spray pattern/droplet size" and the flow restrictor is a bit different so that may also reduce your "pump cycling".

pulsing tip....I found that if we didn't switch from fill to normal at our convenience center it made our pump pulse abnormally too much.
