The handles are likely Bristol if the valve is same as what is in my '19 315RLTS. Very hard to find them individually. I gave up and made my own. Here's a thread on that process: https://gdrvowners.com/forum/operati...s-easy-to-make
One suggestion if you decide to hang out here on the forum--fill in your signature block. Directions are here: https://gdrvowners.com/forum/gdrv4li...-to-your-posts
If you do an advanced search using my username ("howson") and check "Started Posts Only" you'll find more reading than you probably care to do in one sitting related to the 315RLTS. The DW and I love the layout, but it's been a lot of work to get it the way we want it. (Drop down the search box in the upper right corner of your screen and you'll find the Advanced Search option.)

We bought our 2019 Solitude 374th in September, out in Ohio. We live in Maryland. We have the same handle not working properly, only with our black tank (liquids slowly leak out). Also had a couple things we wanted checked out while under warranty that we noticed within the first couple weeks of owning (example: fridge never been very cold, awning bangs when retracting, kitchen slide issues). No local dealer will touch it because we didn't buy with them (per Grand Design because dealers are privately owned they have that right even if they sell Grand Design units! - WHAT!?!). Closest one that would take us (over an hour away) takes several months to get an appointment and have no night drop policy so would require us to bring for initial diag & return after parts are in (meaning we'd have to take off work each time). A deposit required for each item checked, but would be returned if the item is covered by warranty (aka big $$$ out of pocket up front).
We even inquired about going out to the factory (using vaca time from work) for service, but again, several months for appointment. Did find a mobile guy but he's quite a distance away and with covid who is still working or even open!?!
NOW we have an issue with electronic leveling (would not auto level) then when doing manual it stopped & wouldn't do anything! After a after hours ER call to Lippert Co we believe there is a electrical problem between battery & solenoid!
VERY FRUSTRATED!!! We bought because we live in it full time and are mobile several months a year for work. Considering we bought a new $100k unit you would hope to NEVER have issues like this that you would expect to have if it was a used unit. As owners of new units we should NOT have to worry about all these issues or have to try to fix these things ourselves just to be able to use our unit. What choice do we have??? :(
