Hello and welcome!
Just a old dog trying to learn a new trick but what is " The exhaust Break manifold on the black tank flush"?
Nice looking camper. Enjoy!

My camper has a flush kit for the black tank. Hook up water and it blasts the tank clean.
Actually called a vacuum breaker check valve. I was close lol. It is a one way valve that prevents back flow when flushing so there’s no chance of water draining back through the house into water source. Went to run it and water came out from under my bathroom sink where it is located. I edited the original post to the correct terminology lol.

I thought that was what you were referring to but thought i would ask in case it was something else.
Had to replace ours also and had to find a brass one to replace like with like.
Just a part of camper ownership.
Again enjoy the new to you camper!

Ya I went to Lowe’s and Home Depot looking for parts to make it, couldn’t find what I was looking for so just ordered the same part that went out. Will probably just get the pieces soon and swap it out before I end up having issues again!
Thank you!

Our Seville has the San-Tee Flush system and I ordered the replacement off the Bay site. Came with the new hose plate and the new brass vacuum breaker but the check valve was plastic.
Not sure what was worse - changing the valve or getting my old bones back off the floor.

Welcome to the forum. Just get rid on the awning strip lights. They never last. I replaced mine three times. Replace them with lights under the awning. Got mine from Boogey Lights. https://www.boogeylights.com/ Sticks on and don’t come off unless you take them off. Then you can have lights without having to put the awning out
