Black Tank Flush System Question

When I hook up a water hose to my Black Tank Flush System, I have water running out of the connector that connects to my camper. Water doesn't escape from the water hose to the Black Tank Flush System opening, but between the Black Tank Flush System opening and camper. I used to not have this problem. How do I fix this?
  • Look under trailer, right behind where your BTF hooks up. Mine has a twist on fitting right there, that I just needed to tighten, to stop a small leak.

    Did the washer fall out of black tank flush connection on trailer?
  • Mine has a backflow valve under the bathroom sink which is right inside the trailer opposite the external water hookup for the flush system. That may be leaking if you have one .
  • If I am reading you correctly you are saying there is a new leak where the flush unit mounts to side of black tank? Mounting screws may have worked loost. I would pull the flush unit off, re seal and install. Maybe make a gasket. If not let sealant set up a bit prior to remount.
  • It isn't clear to me what is going on. Maybe I'm just dense or you could describe it further. Even pictures maybe?

    You must realize, we have no idea what "camper" you have?
