Should the water pressure pump stay on when water is not running from a faucet.If it does what can be the problem.

The diaphragm in the pump has prob'ly failed

It's a simple inexpensive repair, and there are kits available for it. Make a note of the make/model/year of your pump (it's all on the housing), call WM and tell 'em you need a diaphragm kit for it.

Leak

Mine did when I had a leak at a joint in the water line. It was hard to see as it was in the bilge, under the galley and on the back side of the line. The only way I found it was when I noticed the trickle down into the bilge behind something else.

Possibe air in the line to a seldom-used faucet...

Wallace- If a tank went dry recently, you may have a large air bubble in the line to an seldom used lav faucet (i.e., swim-platform shower). Unlike water, air compresses and the pump may not shut off. Bleed each h/c faucet throughout your boat. Do this cheep check before you consider a pump repair. Enie April
