Water pressure

I have a Majestic 195 (2014) I can not get any pressure to the kitchen or the washroom taps, but the shower has perfect pressure. I have followed all of the instructions after filling the tank in that you should start at the furthest hot tap, turned on pump and after the water heater has filled up, you get some air come out of the tap and then a very very slow dribble. Has anyone any ideas why?

    Air Lock or Water Leak, perhaps ??

    An air lock seems most likely. Our current MH has little problem in expelling them. When initially filling the boiler and system I just have the main sink tap turned to hot until water flows out. Then turn to cold which expels a little air then water. I turn this tap off and expel air from the basin and shower taps until they flow smoothly. This usually only takes a few seconds. The Bailey Cadiz caravan we had before this was a nightmare to purge. I could be running round for ages trying to get water flowing. Air locks can be a real pain.☹️ I wish you luck.

    I’d check the nozzles on the end of those taps for debris. On close inspection you should find that they unscrew. The give away is that the shower is working just fine.
