Hi . We have just purchased a Peugeot starburst 2005 motorhome. It is a 4 berth. I  can't locate the tap to empty the waste water. I can only see one pipe underneath with a blue tap on it, I thought this was just to drain the fresh water tank. I am sure the person we bought it off said that this pipe drained the waste water. I thought there would have been a pipe for both. Any advice would be much appreciated. 

Regards the old rockers

Blue is fresh water so you’re right there. The waste water drain will be a grey tap.

I'm not familiar with Autocruise MHs but I’m sure someone else will be.

Have you tried searching online and YouTube for info on the water drain locations?

It may not be fitted with a tap but have an electrically controlled solenoid valve? Can you not locate the outlet pipe to check?

If I there is only one pipe, perhaps it is the waste just with the wrong coloured tap. Could be all that was easily available when the original broke.

Our fresh just drains vertically downwards from the base of the tank. There is no horizontal pipe.

Thanks for the advise. Yes I think it has the wrong colour tap on it and there is a plug in the bottom of the fresh water tank. Problem solved . Thanks again. 👍
