Hello everyone, I'm new to the forum, lots of good info here.
My question is about the water supply system on my '06 Fleetwood Gearbox 5th wheel. It has the small plastic window on the side of the outer wall, with the city water connection right next to the fresh tank filler. We live fulltime in the rig, and were stationary for over a year in an RV Park, and I had built a PVC supply "hose" to connect to the city water connction. All was well until we went to move to a new location. After the move, when I hook up to city water and open the hose bib, it pressurizes the hose, but is somehow blocked from entering the RV's system. So I filled the fresh tank, and use that system. But whenever the pump is turned on, the city connection, (which the hose has been removed from), is pressurized, popping the rubber cap off of it and leaking water out of it.
Is there some kind of diverter valve or something behind that little wallplate with the connectors on it, that may have gone bad? I don't want to remove that plate without some knowledge of what's behind there. Thank you in advance for your help.

In my experience, it's best to just replace the whole inlet assembly.
