We have had tight valves with the tanks and now one has snapped. according to the repair man, the cable wasn't long enough. Anyone else having this problem.

Well do not feel special, I too am a member of the Forest River non returned call fraternity, as are many others. Personally the next club I will be joining is the "Warren Buffet can shove his Forest Rivers up his posterior" club.- The repairman has said he cable was too short. I have been trying to get in touch with Forest river but no one returns my calls. The repair shop has had to order the 92 in cable but according to the specs of our camper the 72 inch is supposed to work.
- I think its more a case of the cables needing to bend up to 180 degrees to get to the handles in the wet bays. Like brake or gear cables on bikes every time you make a bend you introduce friction and smooth operation is lost. Having the cable flex at the bend stresses it and they snap. Mine hasnt snapped but its basically frozen to the point that the valve wont fully close when pushing in the t-handle.
- if they are the bristol valves it seems to be a problem as i have replaced a few where they snap at the threads.cant see a cable being to short causing it
