Need help with 2 flex hoses shooting water

I never filled up my Fresh water tank but its showing full. I cant tourn on the water to my camper because after a few minutes water starts shooting out the two flex hoses under my camper. I turned on my pump and the fresh water tank is full.

Welcome to the Forum from Western New York State!

You didn't say what year and model you have, but if it's like our small TT, it would be a stuck check valve in the fresh water pump that's allowing a back feed into the tank when connected to city water. perhaps from never being used. turning the pump on, and using some of that water in the tank may free it up. Otherwise, the pump head can be replaced without having to buy a new pump.

FloJet pumps can get manufacturing bits of plastic stuck in the pump. The plastic comes from cutting holes in the tank for the hoses, etc. You might want to take the pump apart to see if you can pick out plastic bits to restore the pump.

My feeling is that those are the two low point drains for cold and hot, and the valves are open. If that's the case, close them and see if the problem is solved.
