RV black tank plumbing, the gate valve and macerator pump gets replaced and a simple electrical wiring tip. Have to find a way to get rid of the waste in the black tank first. It won’t dump normally.

One thing I practice all the time is when something breaks or doesn’t work properly I fix it now. I don’t have a list of things that need to be fixed. Now upgrades are different. I do have a list of things I’d like to do in the future and I may or may not do them. But one thing for sure, everything in our rig works and works right.

So today is no different. Our 1/2 bath black tank stopped dumping. There were a series of things I wanted to address to fix this problem and this video covers all the details. I thought the black tank gate valve failed. But as it turned out, the macerator pump impeller was shot and the blades were bent. So I’m going back with all new plumbing, gate valve and macerator pump and fix some old leaks and add a 12V wiring safety precaution. The original install of this system was done incorrectly. I'm going to do it right this time.

I shoot and document these video’s to encourage all of you who have RV’s that when something breaks, wears out or needs maintenance you guys can do this stuff yourself. It’s not as hard as it appears. You can do 80% - 90% of these things yourself, it will be done right, you’ll learn a lot and SAVE a boat load of money.
