Arrow Forester 2861 quick disconnect fitting

Hey all. First post.

I need some help. My 2015 Forester 2861ds has a quick disconnect of the propane back by the outside kitchen.

For the life of me I can not locate the proper male fitting to mate with the female on the motor home.

I have tried camping world, Lowe’s, Home Depot, and a specialty propane shop. The specialty propane shop wants me to swap the female on the motor home but it is so recessed I can’t get a wrench on it.

Can anyone please point me to the male fitting I need?!?

Thank You!

One big question is what do you need to connect to the quick disconnect?

There is this adapter hose:

One note - the shut of valve at the female connector on the RV must be in the OFF position in order for the male end to connect. Could that be your problem?

We want to connect a fire pit. Potentially our bbq.

I’ll look at the on vs. off as a potential issue.

Did Sturgis make the female that FR installed?
