Something looks strange is that picture. It looks like a valve in the lower left hand corner but I don't see a check valve which would be required with a one valve system. Also, it looks like someone has installed two hose clamps at the upper left corner. If this is a new unit I would want to know why they did not re-clamp the pex fitting.
Good catch...I was thinking the same thing..the mickey mouse hose clamps don't look like factory original.
My bet - the dealer pirated (or borrowed) the by-pass valves and lines and used them on a different trailer..
Happens often. Dealer or customer is in a hurry to take delivery, dealer doesn't have a part on hand and can't wait for delivery....so they "borrow" the needed part from a rig sitting on the lot.
