water pump runs ever 30 to 45 min.

while dry camping I noticed my water pump would run on regular intervals. I looked for signs of leaks and found none. I also found that while connected to city water my fresh water holding tank would slowly fill and run out the over flow after 3 or 4 days. The problem was issolated down to the by-pass valve leaking. I found it easier to add another valve in the line than to replace the defective valve.
