I have a problem with the water pressure at the kitchen sink on my 2012 R-27. The sink in the head gives plenty of water but the kitchen sink is just a trickle. I have disconnected the faucet from the hose but it's still only a trickle. Any ideas on cause and solution? Thanks.
 
Is the faucet in the head a teenager and the galley over 65?

Seriously, if you have compressed air available, try blowing back the system. Beyond that it's just a matter of working backwards to find the blockage.

There are several screens that can accumulate minerals or junk from the tank, and they need to be cleaned periodically. Start from the faucet and work back at each connection - my galley was just a trickle also until I found the screen between the hose and the faucet head was ~70% clogged

Yes several screens and not all tugs are the same. You may find them here:
-Connection right out of the wall
-Biggest culprit is backflow at connection from flex hose to faucet body. There is a small phillips screw that holds "O"-ring
connection. loosen, slip off and remove plastic backflow preventer.
- Screen where flex hose connects to faucet
- aerator
