Hot Water Flow Reduced from all Faucets & Shower

Are you sure the hot water tank isn't in bypass mode? That may well reduce pressure through not only the hot outlets but all of the cold outlets as well.

Just a thought...

Thanks but it was the check valve that broke off (located at the back of the water heater). I was unable to remove it, but got an RV tech in who got it off and replaced with a brass valve.

Thank you Sjurb7 for your question. I have had the same problem for a year now. it only happens when I am at a campground with low water pressure (less then 30 psi). The hot water comes out fast at first and then slows down to a very small stream. Last weekend it was so bad that I filled my fresh water tank and set the nautilus up for dry camping using my pump.

I pulled the plastic check valve out and found that the check valve plunger was sticking. I ordered this one in brass on Amazon.
