victorino545 Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I have a 2000 Fleetwood Class A Discovery. I am trying to replace a shower faucet and cannot see a access panel (behind the faucet is the refrigerator). I am trying to find out if anyone else has had this problem with this model and how they replaced faucet. Someone suggested cutting a panel out but not sure I want to do that. All suggestions appreciated. Thank You Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk W Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 If the refrigerator is behind it then there is a very good chance that you will need to remove the refrigerator to get in there and replace it. It is also very common for you to have to cut an access hole to replace a faucet set that is inside of a wall. Good travelin !...............KirkFull-time 11+ years......

victorino545 Posted April 21, 2015 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Here is picture of knobs. Do you think I can pop out the small plate behind the knobs and replace. Sorry but I am new to this and don't want to make it worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kirk W Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I've not seen one quite like that but I notice that there are four small buttons across the top of that plate which look like they might either be the attaching points or that they may cover some screws or something. It seems to be intended to pull out far enough to remove the attached water lines which must be behind it. Hopefully someone here will have worked with one of this type, but I'm afraid that it isn't me so I'll suggest waiting to see of others can be of more help. Anybody? ?

When I joined many years ago (when we were still using satellite Internet), I didn't have to pay.

Al F Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I replaced the shower faucet assembly in our 2006 Winnebago Sightseer. It is held on the wall by screws and I just took out the screws and was able to unscrew the water hoses and attach the new faucet. As I remember there are flexible hoses going to the faucet so it wasn't a problem. Those little buttons in your photo may be covers over the screws. Take a small screwdriver and see if the buttons will pop off.

bigjim Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Put the stopper in the tub first so they don't accidently go down the drain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solo18 Posted April 22, 2015 Report Share Posted April 22, 2015 Do you really need to replace the knobs and panel? I put in a new shower wand by just unscrewing it at the faucet connection and then screwing the new one on. Very easy, even for an older lady with few tools.
