Outside shower connection

I recently purchased a 2004 dutchmen classic model 28rk m-5 fifth wheel trailer with a quick disconnect shower attachment that did not have the male end shower connection an head. Anybody know where can I purchase this shower attachment?

RV 15' Coil Hose With Sprayer

It's not much more than a flexible quick connect hose with a garden nozzle on it.

I'd be talking to the dealer about this missing part.

I thought is was a quick connect too. But how does it connect/disconnect. I have been using these things for many years now and have never seen one that would not work. I have seen old beat up pneumatic couples be difficult. But this one will not move. It looks like there is no room for it to slide or push back so it could work.

WD40 or a large ball peen!
I think I had to give mine a shot of WD40 before the it would connect. There's not much of a stub but it should connect with a little persuasion of some sort.

Ok Arlen, just for you I went out into the freezing cold to look at mine. It does have a short throw on it so I guess you'll have to remove it and look at it from the back side. Who knows what may be blocking if from opening. Being it's steel I'd bet there's rust in the balls or in the race inside it.

Last case, you can just replace the male and female with a nice brass set up.

I took my connection to my local rv store and matched a male connection that has a garden hose thread. Haven't reinstalled but hope it works. I only use the outside showed to wash hands and clean fish but find it very handy.
