Fresh Water Pump recycling

My fresh water pump keeps coming on every few minutes. No water is leaking into the bilge. The water pressure at the faucet does not appear to drop. When I switch to my backup water pump it has the same result. I have searched everywhere for leaking water and find nothing. Coul it be an air leak on the intake side?

Yes, you can have an air leak on the intake side that will cause the pump the cycle. I've been there, it was the connection at the pump.
