Water pump on Rushmore

Can someone help?
We have a 2013 Rushmone Lincoln Rushmore and have a water pump issue.
Filled the holding tank and turned on the pump.The pump runs but no water.
Where do I look for a solution. I have located the pump and intend to replace it.
Is there any checks to make sure the pump should be replaced.
I noticed no suction from the pump at the anti freeze inlet.
Thanks Ellwood.

Are you sure that all the valves for winterizing are turned to the correct position for what you are trying to do/check out?

The pictures shows what it looks like when not in the winter position, but rather the normal operating position.

follow the antifreeze hose to the valve that switches from tank to antifreeze hose. turn valve to antifreeze and lift that hose and add water to hose with funnel to get water to pump and turn on pump, try that . Sounds silly but that may 'prime 'pump enough to be able to switch to tank. I had to do that with a pump I had in one of my other trailers. For some reason,previous owner must have ran the pump dry or something .
or if you have a filter, it may be plugged.

There could be a valve by the water pump closed. This is the valve you close when winterizing the camper and you want to suck in the "pink stuff". You close the valve on my camper when you pump the antifreeze so it does not pump antifreeze into the fresh water tank. You then open it when winterizing is complete.

Ya just figured mine out on our 2014 Lincoln . had antifreeze line into liquid but would not suck it up. had to go thru the opening in the compartment feel my way around water pump and found a valve. once I turned it all anti freeze went thru the system. I also noticed the filter in side that area hard to get at all that stuff.
