Every so often we have a customer call, like Mr. Kelly who had bought a new 5th wheel, that came with our Drain Master valve system, as a standard feature with the Drain Master switch. He discovered that the factory had either mislabeled the switches or connected the Gray Switch to the Black valve.\"drain<\/p>\n

Frustrating….. but a simple matter of changing the labels (not so easy, or available, if damaged). Or you could change the plugs on the wiring going to the valves. These plugs are either a<\/p>\n

\"4<\/p>\n

4 pin flat plug, or<\/em><\/p>\n

\"2<\/p>\n

\u00a02 ea. 2 pin plug<\/em><\/p>\n

These plugs are located about 12″ away from the switches themselves. This option is about a two minute process IF<\/strong> you know they are there.<\/em><\/p>\n

If not the next logical thing to do is remove the Sta Con terminals on the back of each Drain Master switch and reinsert them on the other switch.<\/p>\n

\"hd<\/p>\n

\u00a0Not so simple as you now have 8 terminals on each switch, which means you have 16 wires with terminals on the end. (Some of the Sta Con terminals have 2 wires in them.)<\/p>\n

The other option is to remove the belly pan, the big sheet of plastic sealing the underbelly of the coach and change the plugs near the valves. This is not a good option because the pan is very difficult, if not time consuming to remove and reinstall.<\/p>\n

So to sum it up, NO it is not good to remove the terminals on the back of the Drain Master switch.\u00a0 But if you already did, simply give us a call, and\u00a0we will try\u00a0our best to help you get them put back where they belong and get you on your way.<\/p>\n
