  • The reservoir under the hood is more than likely for the coolant. My buddy has a 17 35K and his is in the RR behind the wheel.
  • on my 2019 Southwind 35K it is behind the passenger rear wheels! Apparently they move em all over! The red reservoir under the hood on my coach is engine coolant.
  • Ours on a Monaco gasser is inside the bay just behind the drivers seat

    Sounds about right and it takes Dextron III tranny fluid.
    Should have solenoid valves mounted on the pump, right above the tank, with hyd. hoses connected to them.
  • The reservoir on our 1987 Itasca and our 2001 Winnebago Brave are both under the hood in front of the radiator. The tank is square and the pump is mounted on top of it. They both take red transmission fluid.
  • Have someone Activate the Jacks. You walk around the RV and locate where the Pump noise is. THAT is the Pump/Reservoir. Doug
  • The reservoir for the jacks on our 1996 Southwind is just behind the right front wheel well.
  • Not knowing your unit, I’ll echo ivylog. Look forward of the step on the passenger side.

    Usually mounted near the steps and the tank, pump, and motor are one unit and usually it has red ATF fluid in it. If the tank is separate then follow the hose to the pump/motor to make sure.
