Hi folks..
What should be very easy has turned into a nightmare.. well, maybe not that bad.

Trying to find a 'male' quick disconnect fitting that will connect to my 'factory' propane accessory port.. Tried two different sizes and purchased the last 1/4" quick disconnect from Camping World.. don't go in all the way. Any ideas? Get a bigger hammer??

Thanks,

I had the same problem with mine. I ended up buying the whole assembly male and female from camping world and was planning on changing both but I just used the male adapter as it fit perfect. For some reason the diameter is slightly smaller. Been working great now for over a year and I guess I have a spare female fitting.

I ended up buying the setup from Amazon for about 30 bucks. I installed a "T" fitting after the regulator (low pressure side) and connected there.

Most of the stand alone propane companies(Amerigas etc) sell fittings and most likely they would have them.But they are more dollars than ebay or amazon BUT you would know right away that they fit. It is amazing the amount of fittings they usually stock!

That is exactly my next step and maybe I will not have to replace the complete assembly.. Thanks, Walter

My 2015 33C came with the fitting. Might want to check in the bottom of the bag of manuals. Good luck.

Thanks everyone... I don't know if the quick connect (male) was supposed to be supplied with the coach or not... I purchased the whole assembly (Camping World) and the male end that came with it does, indeed, fit my propane connection.. Problem solved, or might I say alleviated. I plan to try and find a couple more connectors now that I know what it looks like.
