Hope someone can help! I just purchased a new to me 2007 Le-21, everything seems to work fine except the recirc valve. The valve feels like it is opening and closing but it will not stop my livewell from draining.i have looked and I can’t find the actual valve anywhere.
I assume this has the flo-rite Auto-Empty-Recirc “switch?” If so, there is a valve box in the back connected to one of the pumps. They make a rebuild kit for the valve that is pretty cheap. I did that last year and by the end of this season it had started to leak down on Recirc again, so I’m just going to put a new from the factory valve box in this winter. They are only like $30 depending on which you have. Rebuild kit is in the link below as well and is $12.

It should not be leaking again that quick, open up you old one and look I bet something wasn't installed right, no reason to buy a whole new valve...Originally Posted by lmoore
Ill check it out, but it seems odd it worked fine for a while and then stopped. If something got installed wrong, I would think the problem would show up pretty much immediately.
