Anderson kantleak.....leaking while moving

This is a 4 way valve, i thought at first the ck valve on the water inlet was the culprit,so I just put a plug in the inlet until we got home. Still got water in the enclosure, and it was enough to run out the hole where the water hose goes up thru bottom. I now believe it is coming from the vent hose, is my thinking on track and what is the fix? I am thinking of just putting a simple cutoff on the vent, of course I will have to remember to turn it off and on at the right times.
I intend to put more water in the fresh tank and watch for sure as the wife goes forward and backward while I watch.
This only occurs while we are in motion, we do not travel with a full tank of fresh water, just enough to use the bathroom. Enough is sloshing/siphoning that if on a incline we barely have enough for minimal usage.

I have checked the connections on the backside of the valve and all are tight, no water on the backside floor.

Your thoughts?

found out it needs loop above where the vent hose hooks up,winnebago says it is a fresh water vent line that is most likely sloshing and perhaps siphoning water out.

I hope this helps someone with a similar problem, At least I tried to help with a solution!

The cartridge for your Anderson Valve has blown an O ring, allowing city pressure into your fresh tank as well as supplying it to your coach. Very common occurrence with the Anderson 220-RV diverter valve. Takes about 30 minutes the first time to fix it. Replacement Kit will come with directions.
