My water pump runs when turned on, I can hear it running but it is not delivering water. What is the problem? any advice appreciated.

empty water tank
blocked inlet to pump
sucking air on the inlet
stuffed pump/loose impellar
just a start for you
cheers

Pressure or valve blocked ? Disconnect at pump and check ? Easy if it has push on fittings .

Thank you Blaze. I detached the impeller housing and found the outlet valve was stuck closed. I found a technical solution, fiddled it with my finger, all good now:)

There's no impeller in that pump, its a positive displacement pump with a rotor.
