well problems

I now notice that gauge may read 30psi and still no water. I have an old mobile home and the water comes in and passes a cutoff, then there is a split to a faucet then on to this two dohicky thing with a blue cap on one side, red on the other, with a label "push to bypass" could this be an issue? How about the control box? I havent replaced that yet. About at wits end... have tried many suggestions to no avail.

Anybody got a thought?????

Your "doohicky" may be a bypass valve for a water softener. If that's the case, then there's been hard water run through the plumbing and you could have clogged pipes. The bypass valve needs to be in the bypass position, otherwise it will try to run water through the missing softener; I assume the connections are capped.

Trying opening the drain on your tank and see if the pump will cycle and verify that the pump is kicking on and off at the right pressures. If this is all good, then work your way downstream through the mobile home plumbing until you find the blockage. My guess is that you'll need to replace all of the pipes up to the water softener bypass including your outside faucet.
