faulty water pump

Hi i have a autotrail dakota . there is a problem with the water pump. the pump is turned on at the control panel and then when a tap is used and then turned off there is still a discharge of about 4amps showing. A new pump has been fitted but the problem is still there. I have tried tapping pump but to no avail.
Any suggestions please!!!! my hair is grey enough:

regards Barjul
 
Is the pump still running?

If not try disconnecting the power to the pump by taking the electric feed of the terminal and see if the discharge dissapears.

Hi Pete

yes I have done that and there is no discharge.So where do I go from there?
thanks barry
 
Is this a Fiamma pump ?
They have a (cheap Chinese) microswitch built in which is not always working as it should.
 
The Fiamma micro-switch is available as a spare part if you want to replace it, give us a ring.

Hi peter
thanks for your help and advice.sorry about delay in getting back to you. The problem seemed to put it self right then it woke me up about 4 in the morning even though it was switched off at the control panel. I took all the fuses out of the fuse box and still iot continued to run. I am now taking it back from whence it came they can sort it
regards barry
