2002 Goldrush - onboard water system -- how to?

cad · 07-11-2022, 11:09 AM

Hi,
2002 39' gooseneck with the 2 hose faucets on the front of the trailer.

I messaged with Marty Jr and he said add water using the top faucet. I hooked up my garden hose water and the trailer will not take in water.
Not knowing if needed, I turned on the water pump and it felt like it was running, but still nothing allowed to fill the tank.

Please share any advice/experience.

Thanks,
Clark

I'm pretty sure I fill mine at the bottom faucet. It has a hose adapter that stays on the tap that accepts the male garden hose end. Water goes directly into the tank and there are two smaller plastic lines at the top for overflow, no need to run the pump. I will confirm tonight when I go home. You might want to check and see if someone installed an inline shutoff, don't know why they would.

Fill it from the bottom till it runs out the vent.

If you get a white hose from a store that carries camping supplies the water wont stagnate quickly. If you use a garden hose by end of weekend you wont want to wash your hands from the water in that tank !
