    Open/Close valve on my livewell is stuck

    The open/close valve on my livewell is stuck open and i can not get it to close... I was wondering what is the best way to get access the the valve and fix the problem. Im pretty sure some form a debris is the problem bc it has never been a problem before. Its the right valve if your sitting in the drivers seat.

    I had that happen and just blasted it back thru with a water hose from the exit near the pad.

    One of those valves are for the cooler, the other is for the livewell. On mine....the one on the driver's side is for the cooler and the one on the passenger side is for the livewell.

    Mine is reverse of Nathans (1996) but it is agreed one is Cooler and the other is Livewell (they both are labelled livewell)
    If you pull the center "console" storage drop in you will see the cables going across
