Title: Shuttle valve
Post by: Lowell R Olson on July 10, 2020, 01:07:21 am
I have a 2001 Intrigue. The shuttle valve (diverter valve) broke. It's in the water bay near the water pump
Does any one  know if that is replaceable?  Or has anyone done a work-around
We are without water now 5 days
Appreciate any suggestions

Is this the valve?

Flair-It 16885 Angle Stop Valve - 1/2" PEX

If so, it shouldn't be difficult to find a replacement. Google will return several sources.

Lowell,

Can you be more specific?  What does the valve do?  We also have a '01 Intrigue and maybe I can be of some help. PM me if you need some info. I have all the books.

Lowell:  Help me understand what is going on?  The valve that switches between "city water" and "tank water" is broken?  How is it broken?  Like, does it leak / pour out water or is it broken in that it is stuck on Tank water or stuck on city water?  If the valve is stuck- you should be able to either fill your on board water tank and use that, you have an inlet that will take a hose that pours right into the top of the tank.  If the valve is broken such that it is leaking, the quickest way to solve the problem is to have a plumber come out (or if you are handy do it yourself).  99% of the plumbing is off the shelf plumbing with parts found at any hardware store.

Hope this helps.
