Just went out on the line to have a look.

Go to the camp side compartment, 2nd from the back. That's where your water filter is. Take off the little black door inside that compartment to access the water pump. There is the blue water line with a little chrome valve....that valve is open. Close it, you're good to go.

The cap is not missing, we use valves instead. The hot line has a cap that we put on for the air pressure test.

Should be the lowest valve on the blue line. The others are for bypasses.

I will look for the valve by the water heater when I get home from work today. Unfortunately, I have to work so I can pay for this new toy.

Thanks for all the responses. I knew I could count on this forum to resolve the problem.

I will let you know how it works out.

That's a whole other division, they do things differently.

In my sunseeker, there is a drain valve near my tank (under bed) that is the drain. I also have caps outside. Just look at your tank if you can and follow the lines out-it's small, but you'll see it.
Hope this helps.

If you can see the line that water is coming out of, it should be easy to follow that line up to the valve.

If it is like a 2010 Sunseeker 2300, the drain valve for the fresh water tank is next to the tank. This is accessible thru the approx. 5" hole (remove threaded cover on hole). The 3 valves visible directly below the "HOLE" are for the water heater bypass. The tank drain is a stretch towards the center of the area down at the floor level You may be able to reach it from the removable wood cover on the angle portion of the bed skirt. I have moved mine closer towards the removable cover to make it easier to get to.

THANK YOU bclemens. It was exactly where you said it was! I LOVE this forum! I hope I can be of help to someone in the future.

Also, thank you to everyone else who posted help suggestions on this thread. It worked. Now I am a happy camper. Now all I need to do is get up the courage to drive this thing, LOL.

BTW - I haven't heard back from RV Direct Support yet.
