Title: 12v power to fresh water pump?

Resending, this didn't seem to make the list.
In my 2003 Lexa, I no longer have power to the fresh water pump. None of the switches (up front or in the lav) work, nor do they light up as they normally do. I have a third (soft/electronic) switch in my Silverleaf control panel, which doesn't work also. Clearly it seems the 12v hot of these parallel switches are lit.
I assumed it was just a fuse, but every fuse in the front and rear fuse bays appears fine. Is there some other fuse bay/location that I'm missing?

No difference if I'm on generator or shore power versus inverter.

All other 12v loads in the coach are fine.

Water works fine with city water pressure.

Thanks,

I discovered the 20 amp fuse for the water pump was mislabled as "monitor panel" located in the last bay on the passenger side.

Thanks Larry. Don't see any fuses at all in the last bay on the passenger side. Have a call outstanding to Oregon Motorcoach Center for phone help. Both my 12v fuse panels have LED lights out for all blown fuses, and all are lit, so it's not a simple renaming problem, at least not in one of those panels.
Will take another look through all fuse bays tomorrow am. If I can get my batteries in, and not find this, I think I might just temporarily jumper 12v straight to the pump to recharge the lav or wash dishes etc. Only one overnight as I'll have city water (which works fine) at the destination. Wife doesn't want to take the coach if fresh water isn't working (overnight with no 'facilities' is a non-starter). Only while actively recharging or using water of course unless I can ensure it's downstream of another fuse.

Jim, that fuse box is labeled "domestic fuses"
