Same valve (Anderson 200RV) and similar problems. Had it set to City to use the city water and it started filling the tank. At end of season set it to Sanitize/Winterize and nothing would flow anywhere. Did lots of research and discovered a number of posts on different sites that indicated, as said by Pat and Ed, that there are problems with this valve. I had it repaired at a dealer under warranty. Not sure if they just adjusted it or did nothing, but it still malfunctioned. I noticed it was the same valve by a small mark on the outside so I know it was not replaced. I am now ordering a completely new one to install myself and hoping it will work properly. If I continue to have problems I'll figure a way to replace it with a system set up for each individual action like my old RV.
I hate the Anderson valve system. We had a new o ring replaced under factory warranty but a couple months later same problem: on city water our fresh water tank overfills. We have a Big Horn 2017 model. Why not do it like on my other RVs? Direct fill for fresh water. There are a gaggle of hoses behind the inlet lever which are confusing and could lead to leaks. We're going to try to bypass some of this and make a simpler system. I don't get why RV manufacturers (Heartland) make things worse rather than better. Bean counters?
