I have a whale water pump system in my caravan. Firstly I could only get water to the kitchen tap when the bathroom taps were on. I have bought a new micro switch which I have fitted. Now the kitchen tap works but the pump won't stop running. Unfortunately I took the old micro switch out to show at the shop. And when I got the switch home the instructions tell me to note this and that when taking tap apart, too late!! Help

I can only offer the following having never changed a tap microsiwitch but had 'Pump run on' problem.
I take it yours is the external barrel and pump with pump connected to crystal filter unit on side of caravan. If so check under seat where the crystal unit enters the c/van and sse if there is a white coloured unit [ it's a pressure switch ] in the water line it has a knurled knob on top.

With 12volt system on turn this knob clockwise to close it fully. Turn on the kitchen cold tap. Turn this knob anit-clockwise until it starts to 'click' and stop turning knob. Turn off tap this should shut off the pump. if not turn on cold tap and turn knurled knob on switch a bit further then turn cold tap off again, the pump should stop.
