Best Answer

We have a water supply tank on the roof. If I turn on the bathroom sink tap before flushing the toilet or turning on the shower, the pressure in the sink dies after a couple seconds and I have to go to the breaker box to turn the water pump circuit off and back on, then the water pressure is fine. If I flush the toilet or turn on the shower first, then turn on the sink tap, it flows with no problem, even if I turn the shower off right away. I don't know if this is a problem with the pump or a wiring issue. I've never seen a setup like this anywhere in the States. Any ideas what could be the problem?

How do you know when water pump is bad on a 94 Saturn sc 2?

A water pump is a mechanical device; it will always work as long as the belt is on it. When a water pump is bad on a car it will always have either a bearing ( noise) problem or seal ( leakage) problem. If your water pump does not have these problems then it is OK. If you have overheating problems, change your engine thermostat first and try that.Also it may need new coolant or the system flushed.

Can the water pump cause problems with heating and cooling in Taurus 96?

Yes(!) the water pump can cause problems with heating and cooling.A failing water pump is not able to properly move engine coolant - making it hard for the heater to produce warm air in the cabin.For example, you may find the heater works better when the engine is turning faster like while driving (versus just idling) - this could be a water pump with worn or a broken impeller.See "Related Questions" below for more about Taurus/Sable heating system problems
