Alde mixing valve installed in 320S

jalars8

I had the Alde mixing valve with red cap installed in my 320S by an independent RV tech. When, in process of de-winterizing, I turned on the hot water tap in kitchen sink to fill the hot water tank, nothing happened, it didn't sputter for a period of time when the tank would be filling, etc. No water coming out. I think water is getting to the mixing valve but not exiting the valve to go to the tank. I conclude this because the line going into the valve is slightly cool to the touch and, on the other side it is not cool. I am wondering if the tech who installed the valve did something wrong in the process and, if so, what?

Other owners that have had issues when dealers/techs replace the older LK550 TMV with the current standard Alde Branded TMV.

The Two TMV look alike but are different; cold water in and mixed hot water out are on different locations of the " T " shaped TMV.

This thread/discussion has a dialog of the failure mode and the final solution (correcting connections). The 'This Is the Problem' was posted on June 1st.
