Outside water faucets not working on 2009 2955...

I have a 2009 2955RL. Inside the port side storage are my outside hot and cold faucets, both are not working. Last year they worked fine as I used them several times. I have taking out the faucets which just left the open pipes, but still no water would come out when I attached the hose to "City Water". Every water outlet inside the camper works.
Anyone got any ideas?
Thanks in advance.
Tom

Is the water working inside the rig? Check the fresh water tank fill and make sure it is pointing to the left and not down. I just checked mine and the only time it won't work is when the fresh water valve is in the fill position (pointing down). When the valve is down you will not get water in any faucet in the rig inside or out. Also if the city water connection check valve is bad you will get no water.I tried both the winterize and the hot water bypass valves and they didn't effect the supply to any faucets either... Dave

I had the same problem the last time we went camping. Have not taking the time to check it out yet. I think that it will be the cheep fixture that are used.

I have a similar problem. The hot side quit working, then all of a sudden it started working again, great! Next trip, quit working again!

Found the problem after removing the faucet. There is a check valve for each valve. The hot had gotten stuck in the close prosition. Used ice pick to get it lined up again. Everything back working.

How did you get to the check valves and line them up?

I had taken the faucet out and noticed that they were not lined up the seem. I used a ice pick to push the one that was stuck back so it would reset in the hole. Now I think that you can do this without removing the faucet. You would need to remove the valve and look in the fixture. On mine the check valve was blue and the set was black. The Blue dot should be in the center. Mine had worked its way over to the side.
Hope that this helps.
