I need a proper door latch

I have a Jayco. Can you post pictures?

I didn't address the sewer drains.

On a 96 model, if you have a toilet (yes, some only have a portapotty), you will have a grey water and a black water tank. Grey water is from the sink and shower (if you have a shower). Black water is from the toilet. I have seen a few post on this forum where some older campers only have one tank and few where someone had re-plumbed the pipes dumping grey water into the black. You may have to do a little investigation to figure your systems out. That's all part of the learning experience.

Words of wisdom given to me when I bought my first camper: Never, Never, Ever, use a broom stick to unstop a tank from outside the camper.

Good luck with the your new toy.

Noticed no one with a Jayco had replied, but most have similar plumbing. It could have been changed but, on a 96 model you should have a hose connection to connect to city water, a gravity feed inlet to put water into the tank for when there is no city water and then you should have 2 line drains, one for hot and one for cold. Last, you will have a tank drain.

The tank drain will exit below the tank (possibly through the floor) and depending on the camper, the line drains will exit through the wing extending over the bed of the truck or through the floor if the camper has a basement.

A lot of manufacturers will have online documentation for their campers that shows you where all the valves are. If you can't find a Jayco manual online, Arctic Fox puts theirs on line and it will give you an idea of where things are located.

Hope this helps,
