Water pump in sink not working

My first post here, so hi! The waterpump in the sink in our camper has now decided not to work. It was intermittent two trips ago and needed a bit of wiggling with the pipe that sucked the water up from the tank which seemed to work a bit, but during this latest trip - nothing. When I turn the tap, there is still the little click, but nothing else, despite lots of wiggling! Does anyone have an idea what the problem might be? Thanks.

You need to figure out if the pump has packed up or if the switch in the tap isn't working. Do you have a multimeter and/or are you able to dismantle the tap to check the switch?

I have the same issue.
Get a multi meter and test the switch (in my case a foot switch). I discovered the switch was getting power and it was the pump at fault!

Thanks for your replies. Where would I get a multi meter from please? As for which conversion it is - it just says Campervan on the back?

Ok do you have a picture of the inside?
Is the water tank under the sink?
Is the pump in the tank or visible outside
