This was my 1st time camping with my 2012 Laredo, i just picked it up from the dealer. I noticed as I was looking around the outdoor kitchen that there was a noticeable bad smell. I remembered reading that the sink drains into the black tank, so i stuck my nose into the drain and i could smell sewer fumes. I thought maybe it needs water to fill a plumbing trap, so i ran some water but it didn't help much if at all.

Does anyone know if there is a trap in the plumbing or if there is a remedy to this issue?

Sorry for all the questions, this was my 1st camp weekend with this trailer and there are a lot of new things to figure out!!
