Leaking Bathroom sink

[taylormadeone]

The last couple of times that we went out our bathroom sink has been constantly leaking. The first time that I noticed it the particular campground had high water pressure, so I went and bought an adjustable water regulator to be able to lower the pressure. I also took the spigot apart and reseated everything, but I found out the leak was not coming from the spigot. However, the sink still leaks. Any ideas??? I forgot to mention that my rig is a Melboune 24L.

Sounds like you need a complete new fixture

Bathroom sink is leaking? Can you be more specific? The only way a sink can leak is if it has a hole in it. The hardware, on the other hand, has multiple places to leak. So, what is it that's really leaking? The spigot? The connection of water lines to the spigots? The connection of water lines to the wall? The sink drain? The PVC line to the grey tank? What's leaking?

The faucet is leaking into the sink.

I would go to your favorite plumbing/hardware/bog box store and get a new faucet that suits your taste and function. The spacing for the water lines is standard 4" for a bath fixture. I think we bought a Phister for our bathroom sink.

Now we know where the leak is. I don't think you need an new fixture. All you need is a washer. Readily available at any hardware store although you will have to buy a variety of them due to that's how they sell them.
First you will have to remove the faucet. Most likely on top the faucet is a plastic cap that says H or C. Remove that plastic cap with a small straight blade screw driver. Below that cap you will find a screw, most likely a Phillips. Remove that screw then lift that faucet off the fixture. It may be stuck and difficult to remove just keep tugging.
When you have the faucet in hand, at the bottom you will find another screw again most likely a Philips. Remove that screw and the washer it is holding in place. From the box of washers you got at the hardware store, select one that is the same size and shape as the one you removed from the faucet. Place it on the faucet and put it back together reversing the process described above. It's also advisable that you do the same with the other faucet.

BE SURE THERE IS NO PRESSURE IN THE SYSTEM BEFORE DOING THIS OR YOU MAY HAVE WATER EVERYWHERE!
