Late model Winnebago doghouse removal

Question

Anyone one here have a 2012 or later Winnebago Class A? Wanting to know how to release the doghouse. Looking underneath (too cold and wet to climb under) I see some sort of locking device on the rear edge of the doghouse. Wondering if it is released from underneath or if there is a screw hidden under the carpet inside. Don't want to go ripping up carpet if unnecessary.

Assuming its on a Ford chassis there should be 2 screws/bolts on the doghouse perhaps covered by carpet. One on each side on the end away from the dash.You shouldn’t have to rip up carpet, on mine they are ON the doghouse not the floor. Good luck.

Winnebagos are different from Newmars. There is some sort of cam lock latch mechanism on the back side of the cover.

my ‘00 and ‘16 winnies on ford chassis were as wildtoad described.

Good luck finding the solution. And there may in fact be a difference. I would find it curious that Ford would have different DH closures based on who they deliver the incomplete chassis to. But I’ve seen weirder things in my life.

They are latched or screwed down from the interior.
