Closed those faucets and all is good.

Thanks to those of you offering advice and suggestions. These were greatly appreciated!
That was going to be my next suggestion to check. Be careful driving with the water pump on, I’ve heard of something hitting the outdoor kitchen faucet valves and turning on the water while underway ! That’s why I leave my water pump off while driving, unless someone uses the bathroom, then it goes on and right off again!

Well, in any case, It's Great that the cause of the dilemma was found!

Don't count on Camping World to check everything. I had a slashed tire from what appeared as a forklift and they didn't notice it on my walk through until I pointed it out. There have been other issues they never caught either.

Hooked my water up to a city water connection for the first time. The connection made is correct on the RV where it says "City Water Connection", and I have a water pressure regulator attached at the water spigot.

Checked for leaks...none...turned on cold water faucets to allow for air pockets to escape. Water comes thru all faucets...no problem.

After a short time, I noticed water rising in the kitchen sink. Ran and shut water off. Opened the Gray Water tank valve, and water came gushing out of the tank that was previously dry and empty.

Does anyone here have any suggestions as to what might cause the gray tank to fill when connected to city water?

Thank you!!
Make sure Black water tank valve is in “Shut off” position and Gray water tank valve is in “Open” position so running water
inside RV, flows out into sewer opening in ground.

Don't White Hawks have 2 grey tanks? The one for the tub/ bath sink may have been the one drained and not the one for the kitchen sink. just say'in

Don’t believe so, but Pinnacle and North Point luxury 5th Wheel trailers have two 37 gal. grey water tanks for sure.
