Water gushing out of water hook-up when using internal water pump

Gear = 2014 T@B: OK, this one's bizarre. When boondocking (in a park without domestic water), I fill the onboard tank and then use the pump for water. It works, just, but then I discover that the pump is pushing most of the water out of that domestic water-supply nozzle outside.
Is there some sort of footvalve in the plumbing, that should prevent a reverse-water flow, that may be faulty?
Another possible symptom is that when on domestic water, and when I disconnect the hose, hot water squirts out of the nozzle when I disconnect it prior to leaving (yes, I open the taps inside the trailer).
Thanks in advance for any help. I've done a cursory check on this forum and haven't found the like is any previous posting.
Cheers, and happy camping!

Sounds like you need a new check valve in the city water inlet.Sharon / 2017 T@B CSS / 2015 Toyota Sienna Minivan / Westlake, Ohio
