Where do I find…

Sometimes finding something on your motorhome is easier said than done. Here is some of the common places you will find what you’re looking for.

Where do I find my chassis number?

The location of the chassis number, also known as the Vehicle Identification Number (VIN), can vary depending on the make and model of the vehicle. However, there are common places where you can find the VIN on most motorhomes.

Driver’s Side Door: Inspect the edge of the door frame on the driver’s side. Some vehicles have the chassis number stamped on a plate in this area.

Driver’s Side Frame: Open the driver’s side door and inspect the area where the door latches to the vehicle frame.

Under the bonnet: Look for a metal plate or sticker on the engine block, radiator support, or other components under the bonnet.

Vehicle paperwork: Your chassis number is often printed onto any official vehicle paperwork.

Remember that the chassis number is a 17-character alphanumeric code that provides information about the vehicle’s make, model, year, country of manufacture, and other details. If you have trouble finding the chassis number in these common locations, refer to your vehicle’s owner’s manual for specific instructions or contact the manufacturer for assistance.

The location of the fuse box in a motorhome can vary depending on the make and model of the vehicle. However, there are some common places where you can typically find the fuse box in a motorhome.

Near the Driver’s Seat: Some motorhomes have the fuse box located near the driver’s seat, either on the floor or on the side panel. Check the area around the driver’s seat, including the side panels and the area beneath the driver’s seat.

In the Engine Compartment: In certain motorhome models, the fuse box may be located in the engine compartment. It is typically mounted on or near the firewall. Be cautious when working in the engine compartment, and consult your motorhome’s manual for specific instructions.

Inside Cabinets or Closets: In some cases, especially in smaller or older motorhomes, the fuse box might be located inside a cabinet or closet. Check storage areas near the driver’s seat or in the living quarters.

Always remember to turn off the power to the motorhome before accessing the fuse box, and exercise caution when handling electrical components. If you are unsure or uncomfortable with locating or dealing with the fuse box, it’s advisable to consult with a professional or contact the manufacturer for guidance.

The location of the frost protection valve in a motorhome can vary depending on the specific make and model of the vehicle, as well as the design of the plumbing system. However, here are some general guidelines that may help you locate the frost protection valve.

The location of the water pump in a motorhome can vary depending on the specific make and model of the vehicle. However, there are some common places to look.

Under the Sink or Cabinet: Water pumps are often installed near the kitchen or bathroom areas, as these are the primary locations for water usage in a motorhome. Check under the sink or inside cabinets for the water pump.

Near the Water Heater: In some motorhomes, the water pump may be located close to the water heater. The water heater is usually situated in a cabinet or compartment, and the pump may be nearby.

Service Compartment: Many motorhomes have a service compartment or utility bay where various components, including the water pump, are located. This compartment is typically on the exterior of the motorhome.

Underneath the Motorhome: In some cases, the water pump might be located underneath the motorhome, especially if it’s a class C or class A motorhome. Look for a panel or access point underneath the vehicle.

Owner’s Manual: If you have the owner’s manual for your motorhome, it should provide information on the location of various components, including the water pump. If you don’t have the manual, you may be able to find it online or contact the manufacturer for assistance.

If you’re unable to locate the water pump or if you have specific questions about your motorhome’s setup, it’s advisable to consult the manufacturer’s documentation or contact the manufacturer directly for guidance.
