Water regulator problem?

[bubblerboy64]

I had a very similar situation with my very similar coach so I may have some
insight in this if not help. My problem was a hair line crack in that plastic
regulator. It was from freezing over the winter because a little water was left
in the low spot. You will have to remove the carpet and the wood which is next
to the bed, between the bed and the wall. The section which runs from floor up
to the counter that the light would sit on next to the bed. This will allow you
to get to the pipes which run from the fill point into the tank. There are any
number of ways to "fix" this. I used some quick disconnects with a check value
and replaced that plastic piece entirely. It had from my records from the PO
been replaced a couple times. I had to do some modifications to seal up the hole
left where the regulator is fastened to the outside of the bus. I used some
plastic similar to plexiglass but metal would work. Some individual ingenuity is
required but I think if you get some type of one way check valve in there and a
connection of your choice you will be fine. Hope this helps. You do have to get
some of the panels and carpet out of the way to get access. Can't do it
otherwise in my opinion

to water pressure and heard water outside this morning and it was spewing out
from where hose goes into bus. Turned water off outside and went to pump and
the pump kept running. So, it is the white plastic thing that the hose hooks to
that is leaking. Does anyone know how to start with this problem? Do you do it
from outside or inside? If it is the regulator does anyone know where to get a
new one? Got the mattress up and looked under bed, but looks we may have to
tear some carpet up?? Any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!
