I was searching for a water tank drain valve and could not find anything in the manual. Fleetwood could not really help other than sending me a schematic of the plumbing system nor could my RV dealer recall the location of one. My suspicion is that they did not plumb one in.
Has anyone knowledge of finding one on their rig?

I also noticed that the outdoor porch light bulb went out. The unit is sealed from the outside with no screw to remove the light cover, and there is no access from the inside, duh!

Otherwise, I am very happy with the Icon. They are not making 2011 due to the Mercedes Sprinter chassis no longer being available.

Hi, I am new to this forum, but not to the ICON. My drain is under the bench seat in the dining area. Remove the cushions, lift up the plywood base (might need to unscrew), valve is next to the water tank. If yours is different, then look for the water tank. It should be close to the fill port on the outside of the coach. Lastly if that doesn't help, look under the vehicle and see where the drain comes out, 1 1/2 inch plastic pipe. The drain valve should be directly above the pipe. Hope that helps.

Thanks, Jean. I have finally found it. Since I have model 24D, it is under the bed. Lifting up the hinged lid reveals a shelf. They placed the valve under the shelf so it is not visible nor accessible. I need to cut out a part of the shelf to see and turn it. I like the coach, but not very user friendly.
