Here’s an update on my Anderson Valve leak. Did a lot of testing but will not bore you with all the details.

It was suggested that perhaps the check valve in the water pump was the culprit. Got to thinking about that. So, disconnected the park water supply. If the check valve were the problem when the water pressure dropped in the water lines because of a leak the water pump would keep cycling on and off. It didn’t so I concluded it was not a water pump problem. Water leaks into fresh water tank only when connected to park water supply.

Thought with the sun beating down on the water hose that it built up the pressure in the hose and was causing the leak. So, I moved my water pressure regulator (set at 45 psi) from the park faucet to the other end of the water hose where it connects to the RV. Water still leaked into the fresh water tank.

Got the cylinder to replace in the Anderson valve. Was easy to replace. After replacing water still leaked into the fresh water tank.

Now having a whole new Anderson KantLeak panel sent to me. Will replace and report back with the results in a few weeks.

Thanks to all for your replies.
