Hi all,
My fresh water pump has started operating in one second bursts every two mins or so. Fresh tank is approx. 80% full.
I'm in a very calm marina, with no taps etc. open. It's a bit annoying.
Where should I start to resolve this (apart from just switching off pump circuit)
Thanks in advance,

You probably have a slow leak from one of the many whale push fit connections. You just have to look at each until you find the drip.
As the pump is running every 2 min you should see water near the offending fitting.
It may not be a leak. If there's no sign of a leak, then it's likely that one of the one-way valves in the pump has failed, allowing water to flow back into the tank. You can buy a service kit of new valves.
So while checking the push fittings as suggested (thanks), I saw the transom shower was dripping.
When replacing it, the hose had coiled over itself leaving the button *slightly* depressed = a leak.
Note to self: Occam's razor/what's changed on the boat/has anything triggered my 'sixth sense?'
