My valves are in the UDC. Can you post a picture of your issue?

I can post pictures later when I go back to the trailer. Mine are behind an access panel almost exactly like the electric power cord access panel. I am looking to replace it with something that is a little more substantial. I feel the plastic locking mechanism played a part in it not staying shut.
I to lost one, found the cure was to mount the door hinge side up and replace the plastic latch with a metal one for strength. The original one blew off with a heavy side wind, popping the light weight plastic latch then the door broke off flapping in the wind being originally hinge side down. Haven’t had any issues after the mods.

If I may ask where you found your replacement. I have looked for one in black but they seem difficult to find.

Thank you for the information. I called Heartland and ordered the part. Great service. They sent me an email with a photo of the part to make sure it was correct before ordering. That is how you do business.
