Where is the drain for your hot water line? And you say the output drain refuses to pop up -- generally the valves Thor uses turn to open and close. Are you sure the thing you are describing as the output drain isn't the water pump filter to catch debris coming out of the pump from the fresh water tank? Do you had a set of the Thor production drawings for the fresh water system for your model, year, and floorplan? You can get it from Thor and it shows exactly where everything is located. I have never heard of having to get the pump out of the way to get to the low point drains.

These really are pop up valves, that’s how they’ve worked for the past 4 years. I’m really just interested in whether I should go to the trouble of replacing the one that after 4 years no longer pops up OR doing something to free it up. Pics attached for your interest.
1st photo is the errant valve, 2nd is the working valve. These are the low point drains on this Thor A.C.E.
