Broken Handle

mandt

I need to replace the broken handle. Can someone point me to where I can buy the assembly... preferably Amazon.

I have the same repair pending but have yet to order the part. I plan to remove the broken handle after I winterize and figure out the thread size. Amazon has several, including metal versions.

I'll post back here when it's fixed, unless you beat me to it.  ;-)

Just file/finish the broken edge of.  It looks like a weight saving mod.  You shouldn't need the leverage of a two handle, and I never understood why the handle is so big anyway.

Not sure I would replace it with metal as I would rather the handle break than something less easy to change deeper in the plumbing.

Yeah, despite my intentions to make the repair, lazy reality says I'll probably leave it as is since it still works just fine.  :-)

The actual valve nuCamp uses is the La Salle Bristol (rather than the far more common Valterra, for some reason). Amazon doesn’t seem to carry just the handle, so if you want an exact match, you’d have to buy the whole set. https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B003VAYXR2/

The Valterra or Camco replacement handles should still fit though.

Amazon to the rescue!. They apparently now carry just the handle for the valve. The one on my 400 just broke.
