When we have the hose disconnected from the fresh water tank connection and it is connected to the city water connection, the fresh water tank overflows.  Could there be a faulty check valve somewhere?  Where should I look for the problem?  2016 39MB Redwood.  lvclark2@gmail.com

I believe there is a check valve as part of the water pump that could be stuck. I have the same issue but haven't had a chance to troubleshoot it. You might try a forum search with "check valve" as the subject.
