BC16 fresh water valve replacement?

[chrispo]

The cheap white plastic drain water valve handle snapped off on my 4 year old trailer.

I bought a replacement but I'm not sure what's involved in replacing it - it doesn't come out by simply undoing the two holes.

Anyone replaced theirs? My fear is that I have to unbolt the whole tank from beneath. I can't tell whether these bolts support the tank or if they're just for a cover. (?)

Can you see a small panel under the drain valve? I’ve replaced mine w/o removing the pan just the small access panel then the hose clamp should be accessible etc.

Shoot, Gary, I wish. It looks like it's one big solid cover.

I can suck it up and spend a Saturday undoing all the bolts, but I'm not sure what I'll find. Does the cover support the weight of the water and tank, or is it just a cover?

This is the challenge of suggestions vs a trailer you've never seen. OK Round 2.

Again based on the way my rig is built. Can you see the water pump? Is there any access via the cutout in the floor for the supply line tank hose.
