Outdoor hose connection problems

I have a Sandpiper 35ROK and have noticed that the 2nd outdoor hose connection is not working. The hose works fine in the main connection where the valves are located but nothing happens at the 2nd connection when I try it.

Any ideas ?

Help!!!

Is the second connection a black tank flush?

Or second connection could be a winterizing connection. In either case, there should be a label next to the connection stating what its use is.

The second connection is another connection for the outdoor shower/hose. It is on the entry side of the trailer

This connection is another connection for the outdoor shower/hose. It no longer works and I am trying to figure out why & how to repair it.

Can you take off the showerhead and see if it is clogged? Is there perhaps a filter on the inlet that is clogged?

There is usually a check valve on the back side of those ports, could yours be jammed in some way? Assuming all water valves are open.

Everything works fine when it is connected to the other connection where the valves are located

we have that connection on our CC
and the first time I tried to use it , the plunger that holds the water back was stuck . Pushed it in with a screw driver, got sprayed but then all worked after that. Yours maybe stuck, will the connection snap in? They use a High Flow 1/4" air snap on fitting for those hoses, took some time to find the right one. So now we have a shower hose in the water bay and one we use for rinsing off thing by the door or front of the 5th wheel
