2013 Keystone Laredo 250RL Water Pump

We are on our first trip with this RV and cannot get pump to turn on from fresh water tank. Tank is full. Can't find a switch or breaker or fuse dedicated to the pump. I also cannot find the water pump. Owner's manual just says it is automatic but to turn switch on. Manual is a general manual for all Keystone RVs so it isn't much help. Any help would be appreciated. Have read some posts that say it may be under steps to bedroom/bathroom.

Welcome to the forum. If it’s a fifth wheel the water pump switch is on the panel below the thermostat. It has the buttons you press for levels in the tanks. Switch is on the left side. Should light up when the pump is on.

This is based on images I found on-line.

You are right! Thanks a million. Was driving me nuts. We are learning new things about our RV daily.

Your very welcome. The pump will run when you open a faucet/flush the toilet. It should shut off when you turn the water off and the lines pressurize.

If your “dry” camping (no hookups) I would consider turning the pump off when you retire for the night. That way the pump won’t “cycle” and maybe wake you up.

We are looking forward to some dry camping next week. I am going to disconnect city water in the morning and give the pump a try. We are having fun so far learning the ins and outs of RVing. Thanks again.
