I found the blown fuse. My valves have two inline fuses per valve inside the panel in the wet bay. None of these were blown. The blown fuse was in the rear closet and labeled from the factory as Ozone. Whoever replaced these valves must have tapped into this circuit. They could have saved me a lot of time had the labeled the fuse panel. My new valve seals seem to be working fine. The valves are operating well. Thanks for the help.

Sorry let me add to my post. I have Drainmaster valves. I was having trouble getting the gray tank valve to seal. I ordered new seals from drainmaster. I removed the valves and replaced the seals but somehow I have lost power. I bypassed the wiring harness and was able to operate the valves with a battery. So I know the valve motor is working. The switches should have red lights on showing open valve but the lights aren’t on. On the valve side there are two sets of wires connections, red and black. They are marked as power to the valves but I tested them and they had no voltage.

I’ve lost power to my drain master waste valves. I have power to the water pump, cord and hose reels. I don’t know if the waste valves are in the same source. I checked the valves and they operate with direct battery connection. I see two sets of fuses to the switches and all 4 fuses test good. Any thoughts as to any other fuses or switches? Sure wish I had manual valves.

Well, today I was able to get under the rig and look at this. The electric motor that opens and closes the valve was sliding around and not able to close the valve. I used a section of serpentine belt to help the bracket more securely hold the valve body. After a little adjustment, the valve now seals.

In our 2006 Beaver Patriot Thunder the fresh water dump valve isn’t sealing. I can open and close it from the switch but it has a very big leak. What kind of valve is this and how do I access it?

I didn’t have a camera selector switch. On my kitchen cabinet is the original Aladdin switch but it appears to do nothing.

I found the rear camera cable. It was not plugged in. It is working as it should. The right camera seams to be dead. But I will accept the rear camera as a major victory. Does the rear camera have audio?

I tried the control panel I was able to change views to see engine, trip and other data. This did stop my left camera from coming on screen when I turned on the turn signal. I went back to the main screen and could again see the camera. But still nothing from Rear or Right side cameras. I’m wondering where they get their power.

I have not tried that. The guy with silver leaf did not suggest that. I’ll have to look at that in the morning. Thanks.

Thanks. I actually tried that and the right camera didn’t come on when I turned on the left or right blinker.

I spoke with SilverLeaf today. Great support. One of the SilverLeaf boxes needed to be unplugged and restarted. After doing so, my left camera works with the turn signal. The rear and right cameras aren't working. Now to diagnose them. Thanks for the help.

Ivylog, I was finally able to spend some time on this project. I got the new stereo installed. I plugged the video cable into the A/V input of the stereo and I'm able to use the Silverleaf controller to view the Silverleaf screens. I'm trying to determine how to get the cameras to come on. I'm going to call Silverleaf tomorrow.

David, Someone send me a link that was very helpful. I will do that. This whole project began out of the desire to update the stereo. I had no idea it would become a science project.

I don’t know what I’ve got and would appreciate information as to what these three boxes do. 2006 Beaver Silver Leaf Components https://youtu.be/04hDVYNOyH8

Ingenious. Thanks for sharing

Thanks everyone for you help. I replaced the leaking air hose and as well as the other 7 hoses. I'm ready to get back on the road. The new hoses cost my $100 each, which hurt my feelings, but it only took about 20 minutes to remove the old ones and install the new ones. A simple task as long as you can get under your rig safely.

Great information. Thanks. Thank you. I’ll check for this. My steps don’t have a compartment but I may be able to access with generator pulled out.

Good to know. Thanks. Where is it getting it’s fluid? I want to make sure it doesn’t run dry? Someone else suggested I re-crimp the lines and hopefully it will stop leaking.

Thanks Frank Yes. Here is picture of the part Val, the video may have been confusing. Here is a picture of the part

I’m not sure what this part is. It’s mounted on the frame in front of the tag axel. It’s leaking oil around the fittings. Any suggestions? March 16, 2023 https://youtube.com/shorts/IB3tCqWdxB8?feature=share

Very informative. Thanks for sharing

Kurtis, I found it. You were right in the location of the male air line next to my generator. I was able to use that to attach a line from my garage compressor to have a constant supply of air. By having my wife push the brake I finally felt air coming from somewhere. The noise of the air resonating in the tank was drowning out the sound of the air leak. I was able to feel the air near the hose. I sprayed it with soapy water and the bubbles revealed the leak. It’s the hose going to the driver’s side Any recommendations for a source of brake hoses? thanks again for the help

Thanks Kurtis, I have 6 brake chambers. How can I detect which one is leaking if soapy water won’t identify it? I took time to video the underside and the parts that I have been soaping down. Here is a link if you are curious. Underside of 2006 Beaver My next step is to use pinch off pliers and pinch off the air lines to each chamber one at a time to see if I can get the air leak to stop. Hopefully this will identify a bad chamber.

Jim, thanks. I’ll see if I can locate these on my rig and give them the soapy water treatment. I’d love for that to be my problem and to just replace them

Thanks Jeff. I've sprayed soapy water on the brake cannisters and see no bubbling. I will test the parking brake to see if there are any noises from the chambers. My brake cannisters face outward. They compress the calipers. I've seen several videos where they connect to a level that is connected to the brakes. Mine aren't like that on the drive axel. Thanks for responding. I definitely have a leak. When applying the brakes with the engine off, my tanks drop 60 - 70 PSI within a minute. We were backing into a site and the brakes would not hold the rig. We had to apply the parking brake and allow air to build up. I have plenty of air for a hard stop, but constant application of the brake causes PSI to drop.
