So, I removed the valve on either side, (4 way on the left, and the water heater bypass on the right), and then the fitting itself. cleaned everything and used good plumbers tape on all the threads.
After 24 hours I still have tiny leak somewhere with my Kantleak. I found a few drops of water in the compartment. This is a huge improvement from the gallons I was losing with the fast drip before. Now the water pump doesn't cycle at all.
If the drip gets significantly worse I now know that it's a relatively easy, but time consuming, repair.
I am renaming the 200RV-PT valve to Doesleak. The Anderson Brass Company is now duly notified!

Just read your post, what some 2 years later, guess what , they still leak,in the same spot ! ! ! So much for "Innovative Design" ! I did receive an email from Anderson, saying that they no longer use the 200RV-PT VALVE PANEL, and would be glad to sell me a replacement panel 200RV-WBH for $160 !
What a Rackett, provide a defective part to the manufacturer, and then sell the replacement to the consumer ! They're DOUDLE DIPPING ! ! !
