31BHPR Broken Black Water Valve
First time draining the tanks, black tank valve broke just below the under belly. Not sure what I need to fix this, looks like I may get by with just a new handle/rod, looks threaded?

Did the actual valve break or just the pull handle, pull rod, or cable? Is this still under 1 year factory warranty?

You can get just the T handle. Or you could buy the complete valve assembly, but if just the handle broke off that's all I would replace.

Sorry, it's just the rod/handle assembly. I can still see the valve coming thru the underbelly. I have the camper in storage at the moment so I can't get a pic. I do wish it was under warranty but it's a '11.
Edit:
Will this fix me up? Like I said, the only thing broken is the rod where it screws to the valve at the under belly. Thanks!

flubyu, Howdy;
Does it (the old shaft), still have the threads on the valve end? Maybe it
just needs screwed back in?

Hankaye, I can see some threads but it is definitely broken. I ordered the above referenced part from amazon, hopefully it will get me fixed up. Planning to make the repairs this weekend when we get set up at camp.

Good luck, hopefully it is just a matter of screwing on an extension.
