Just in case someone reads this who didn't find it, there is a plastic valve located underneath the compartment that contains the fresh water tank. The valve is located next to the tank overflow vent tube outlet.

I was looking under the wrong side, if I'd just looked for the low point drain decal on the storage doors I'd have seen it right away. Mine have the tubes hanging with threaded plastic plugs for the drain. Still getting to know my new to me coach.

Are you draining the fresh water tank through the low point drain, or am I missing something. The fresh water tank should have it own valve for draining.

What I was trying to say was my valve on the fresh water drain and the low point drain just turn around 360 degrees and no water comes out. Due to the fact that all the plumbing is pex tube and the valve is in between two pieces of pex tube how do you remove the existing valve and put in a new one.

Pex valves are push-pull...I don't remember which is on or off, but they will spin freely....

If something does happen you can just go to Home Depot or Lowes and buy the Shark Pex fittings and what ever 1/2 inch valve or cap you want.
