Hello all, I have a cruiseair sxr10-m10 on my 2001 310. I have recently read on here somewhere that it is a good idea to activate the heat portion so that the "reverse flow"(?) valve gets exercised. So, today I go out to do this and I am not getting heat. Can someone please let me know where this valve is located? Supposedly if it isn't used you just tap it and should free it up. Thanks

I never had luck tapping the valve, but on my previous boat I would get it to "unstick" by going back and forth activating the compressor on "heat" and then "cool" and repeat every few minutes until the heat was working. After that I would be good for the remainder of the season.

Good luck!

Good tip! I will try that! thanks
