Drain valves
I have the 38FB2, with 2 black tak valves. The one valve that is located under the frame for the small bathroom is stuck solid, I try with all my might to pull it to dump. What are you guys recomendation to get it to move. Maybe take some spray stuff, like PB blaster etc to it? Thanks

Did it ever work?
Sometime a squirt of silicone spray at the valve blade where the rod attaches will work its way into the valve and make the blade slide easier.

I spray my valves with a silicon lubricate all of time. Keeps them working easily. If yours is that stuck I would try spraying with a penetrating type spray and let it sit there for some time and then spay it again. You can pull the plastic handle off the end of the shaft if it is really stuck. If that does not work you may have to start taking the valve apart to loosen it up.

Not sure brand new. The sheaved cable runs up thru the plastic underbelly shield I can't see the valve itself.
I'll see ifI can take a pic
