I just bought a new 2016 37KT Challenger. It has a residential refrigerator. How do I get water to the refrigerator? It has ice makerand water dispenser on the door but I can't find the water valve to turn the water on. I looked under the lower plastic kick plate and under the kitchen sink with no luck. Can anyone help? I tried Camping World with no luck so far.

"gavaman".....Typically, the water supply line and shut off valve are routed in one of your bays. Open the bay under your refer and follow the water line. Side Note:....It's not a good idea to post your email and phone number on an open forum. If you need to provide it to someone, you can do it via private message.

Thanks for the help and I will the edit the post.

Is there a removable panel on the outside wall of the RV that would be directly behind the refrigerator? Most units I've seen have the water shutoff and line behind the unit and it is accessed from an outside panel.

my chieftain had the source under the kitchen sink connected to a filter housing that fed both the refrigerator and also the tall bar type faucet for drinking water. just a small 1/4?????? inch clear plastic tube.bumpy

Check out that popup if you haven't already. It could be a drain valve.

look which I hope they are right. There was not any document on where the water valve was.

Call your coach maker. They are the ones who installed the refrigerator and the water line to it.

If you bought it from CW, you are not being insistent enough.
They OWE you support after the sale.

What about documents; did you get any "owners manuals" ??
