Serial number

where do I find the Workhorse Serial # on chassis?? Need to order wiper control box.
  • Workhorse made the chassis, The wiper control box was installed by the MH maker. In my case the VIN number is for workhorse, but the maker of the MH is Fleetwood and they have a separate number called a FIN, Fleetwood identification number and it is located near the drivers door, and Fleetwood installed the wiper control box. maybe your MH maker has such a number. Give them a call and ask.`I don't think you will have any luck calling workhorse because they didn't install the control box.

    Yep, the chassis does not include the front cap or windshield!


    I thought the switch and control box was part of the chassis. Will check the control box for a part number.

    If it is a Workhorse vin I believe it starts with something like 5W (not sure without looking and dont have one on me) Different RV body builders have different rules but Damon uses the chassis vin for the HOUSE.. If the body builder changed it, Workhorse may well have the translation table.

    The chassis build number is different from the VIN

    My chassis build number is located on the main frame under the front of the Motorhome, and on the paperwork provide by Tiffin.

    The chassis number is etched, or cut into the main frame.
  • I guess that is it, didn't know if it was chassis or house. Just not thinking. Thanks!!
  • It could located on a placard by the drivers seat, the weight sheet in your closet, the title, the registration, stamped on a cross member under the hood, or stamped on one of the main frame members accessible from underneath. Take your pick.

    Isn't the VIN the chassis number, located on the dash and on your title as well?
