I have a 2003 BT Cruiser and having trouble turning the hot water heater bypass valve and too afraid to force it. Presently, it is on "normal flow" and I want to bypass the hot water heater. I'm not sure if i have to pull it, push it, turn it. When I make an attempt it seems to also move some of the piping and makes me very nervous. Thank you for your assistance.
My bypass valve is blue & white and made by Swan industries. Looks like this one.
