I've just picked up a 1999 Challenger 480 SE and we are going away for the first time tonight. It is really well equipped for its age but it occurred to me that I don't know where the waste water outlet is or how it works. The toilet is separate to the waste and has its own container which is fine but my question is where or how to fit a waste water unit?

Any assistance is greatly appreciated

Look around the outsides of van, below floor level you will see a Grey flap which is hinged.Pull it open from the top and you push waste pipe in there.

There should be or you should have a waste water tank, they normally have 2 wheels on, on the side or rear of the van should be 2 pipes with grey covers on, that's them. there is a 2 into one of 2 flex pipes you can get that press onto the outlets and you feed them into the waste water carrier.

That's fantastic and thanks very much for both comments. I'll check them before we head off today and yes we do have a container for fresh and waste with water pump for the fresh and I know where that goes.

Thanks again for your help

waste water is normally a flat look container and fresh is a barrel, but ask anyone when your on site, most will be more than willing to assist you.

Thanks to all. Of course the easiest way is probably to pour water down the respective plug holes while I am parked in my drive and see where it comes out. Thanks again
