Shower and toilet spit air

Howdy
My new trailers water pump runs continuously and spits air out of the toilet and shower. The sink works fine. The dealer said to open everything and let it run. I did and nothings changed. What do you guys think?

Wait! The kitchen works fine? are you hooked up to park water? pump should NOT run when hooked up to water. Disconnect pump and try again.

Sounds like you might have an empty water tank. Only turn the pump on when you are using onboard water, not when connected to the city water connection. You pump is an on demand pump meaning if it senses no "back pressure" it will turn on to pump water through the lines and shut off when the water stops flowing; i.e. when the water is turned off at the sink, toilet, etc.
