OK winter is done. spring is here, though it has been rain rain rain! We went to open the camper on our seasonal lot. NO mice, or evidence of mice! Yippee! Turned on the water...no leaks....which is great. Filled the flushable toilet ran the pink antifreeze thru everything. Thought everything was fine. Now when we turn the faucet on or the toilet tank fills or the shower is on..anything to do with water. There is a noise coming from somewhere, do not know where or from what. It only happens when the water is running...any ideas would be helpful.

Do you have a water hose hooked up to it or did you add water to your tank and using it that way?

Without a better description and the fact that you are on a seasonal hook-up I would guess it is the Water inlet check valve noise…

We do not use the tanks in the camper. The water comes directly from the hose which is connected to the camper. I do not know what kind of noise it is.

It is most likely the water inlets check valve chattering… it is where the hose is connected to…

If the noise is objectionable you can replace the inlet, but under the right conditions the new one might hum a little also…

Look and see if someone has turned on the pump switch on your control panel which would kick on when you turn on the water.
