Leak at back of "uni-dock" station at black valve
Finally got the 5er back from service center after warranty. De-winterizing the unit. I went to "power fill" the fresh water tank and found water leaking from the lower elbow fitting on the black valve. I tried tightening the 3 winged nut on the elbow with no luck. Removed the 3 winged nut and there is a coned shaped washer inside that should seal at the lip of the elbow fitting when the nut is installed. I have read all these fittings should be hand tight + 1/4 turn to seat the cone. I had anti-freeze in the line so I don't think it froze.
Note: water pressure is normally blocked at the black valve so the line that is leaking is not under pressure when selected to city watet mode. That's why I never noticed a leak before. Never filled the fresh water tank.
Does anyone know where these fittings can be purchased. I think the elbow may come with the valve (I think the mfg'r is Nautailus). Type 5er is in signature. Thanks
