Default Waste valve replacement

Is there a video to watch to replace a graywater valve on a 2003 conquest motorhome?

Have you looked at the valve? Empty the tank, remove the 4 screws that hold the valve, replace the valve, put the screws back. Pretty short for a video.

HeTY es I looked at it ,that is how I knew it was leaking. The mounting bolts were rusted up and I had to cut them out and I boogered up the the mounting flanges that the valve mounts to.
I was wanting to know if the flanges are replaceable

Everything is replaceable. Only a question of time and money. Any RV shop will be able to sell you the flanges. They may have to order as doubt that they sell many. Hopefully you only screwed up one side. That one will require cutting the pvc pipe, maybe adding a short section of pvc and cementing everything back together. Gray willl be a lot easier to work with than the black so in that regard you’re lucky. With what’s happened so far, might look at finding a plumber or someone familiar with working with PVC.

"With what’s happened so far, might look at finding a plumber or someone familiar with working with PVC" Diplomatic Dennis is giving good advice on not letting this project escalate. You may or may not need an experienced tradesman to finish this without further complications.


Good judgement comes from experience, and experience may or may not come from bad judgement, depending on your luck and skill-set...


Let us know how it all turns out -- with pictures if possible.
