72 Ambassador Water System

Hello - I've been hooked up to city water for a few days but it stopped working today.
I can use the internal water and pump.
My assumption is the pressure regulator failed.
Any other thoughts, or, if you agree, where can I get such a regulator?

Best regards,

Terry

Check the lowest connection on your water heater which is the cold water inlet. If sediment has set up in a bypass line then you will have no water from the city water inlet.

Thanks. I'll look at that when it gets light tommorow. It seems fummy that it was working one minute, and not the next....

I've had mine clog up twice, both in late spring/beginning of summer. After hooking up and turning the water on, I got a little water, some hissing and then nothing. One time I still had RV antifreeze in the lines and the other time I had flushed the antifreeze out a couple of weeks before.
