BrokenArrow1244 Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 (edited) I have A Watts 0543 fill valve has started to fail full shut off. In that it continues to allow water to fill the on board tank when connected to city water. Watts has resoponded that it was made for RV mfg. and is no longer available and no replacement is available. My question is if anyone has had to replace this and what did you use. I do have a recommendation from Dr4Film, thank you! It looks nice, but I would really like to use the existing configuration if at all possible. Just throwing it out there to see if anyone has a good parts supplier. Edited October 26, 2022 by brokenarrow1244 add photo

Russ R Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Plastic but works. https://www.recpro.com/rv-fresh-water-fill-diverter-valve/?campaignid=10108288062&adgroupid=108054235620&keyword=&gclid=Cj0KCQjwteOaBhDuARIsADBqReg3ACtB6CDLaswMRpsWntmDeRrQUDw-8n59XyhvDWMinB2WgSkM38UaAsoxEALw_wcB
DavidL Posted October 26, 2022 Posted October 26, 2022 Here is an upgrade...certainly will require more stuff to make it functional. Need to double check the "logic" of the valve's outputs matches yours ie: which ports are open together, vs which is closed when valve is moved to full position. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07TWR2WKW?psc=1&ref=ppx_yo2ov_dt_b_product_details
Gary 05 AMB DST Posted October 27, 2022 Posted October 27, 2022 (edited) I bought the Amazon Dernord 3 way ball valve. 1/2 inch, SS, $20.99. Had to adjust the handle marking to flow correctly. Gary 05 AMB DST Edited October 27, 2022 by Gary 05 AMB DST wrong price
Gary Petersen Posted October 28, 2022 Posted October 28, 2022 1/2 inch 3-Way Stainless Steel 304 Ball Valve - L Port With Mounting Pad, 1000PSI NPT This is a stainless steel valve which I found on Amazon and it is of the highest quality. The Engraved directional stem marking match up. A little pricy but I am well pleased. I also purchased a new check valve.
BrokenArrow1244 Posted November 9, 2022 Author Posted November 9, 2022 Still looking for the best fit. Glad it is not urgent. I thought I had a perfect fit part, ordered it waited 10 days and it arrived, only to have a warning label "do not use for potable water". I do not drink any of the water but I do use it to cook. So I am on the hunt again. Also, the company rep made a comment they do not make parts for motorhomes. It is just plumbing... just someone looking to get done with that contact. Not good service in my book. Apollo was the brand and Bath1 was the provider for the part, advertised through Walmart. I will up date later,..
