All ActivityMost RecentMost LikesSolutionsRe: De-winterizng an RVGlad to report we found the fresh water fill. Not where you would expect it to be….near the wet bay. Heck no, it is on the other side of the RV……..ON THE SIDE OF THE BEDROOM SLIDEOUT ! Not under it……right on the side. Where the coach is white and so is the fill. With the slide out, never thought to look there! Just one more mystery solved. Thanks for all the help and suggestions, guys. It may take a village to raise a kid, but apparently it takes a lot of friendly, helpful RVers to get this gal straightened out. Still, there are more mysteries to unravel….like where is the fuse located for the HWH levelers? ??????Re: Desperate…Damon 2001 Intruder water fill locationThanks for letting me know about heating the tank. Love RV.net and the incredible kindness of all onboard that share their knowledge.Re: Desperate…Damon 2001 Intruder water fill locationThe tank is in the bay directly below the slide. Sure seems like a wacky place for it to be. Especially, since the tank is supposed to be heated. Darned if I can figure out how. The pictures I saw online of some of the 2001 Intruders had the fill location above the wet bay next to the water heater. Guess it all depended on the specific model where they put it.Re: Desperate…Damon 2001 Intruder water fill locationFINALLY FOUND IT !!!!! NOT where I thought it would be. I have it parked in the side yard with the bedroom slide out. The fill is actually on the side of the slide! What a strange place for it. I kept looking on the side of the RV. Never occurred to me that it would be on the slide itself. Thanks so much for the assist and info guys. I even have the owners manuals and they do not tell where the fresh water fill is. Learning a new RV IS sooooooo much fun!Desperate…Damon 2001 Intruder water fill locationCan someone PLEASE tell me where the fresh water tank fill is located on the 349 model of the Intruder? I have searched the internet high and low and cannot find an answer. There is NO outside fill anywhere on the RV. Yes, I know what to look for! There are No gravity feed options. There is NO way to switch from City Water fill in the wet bay. No levers, switches, or other fill options other than waste flushing system. I have seen pictures of 2001 Intruders that do have outside fill connections and some that do not. Mine does not. I asked the previous owners and they had no clue as they only ever used city water. There HAS to be a way to fill this darn tank. Can someone PLEASE HELP ME?Re: De-winterizng an RVAh, but after getting the city water to work and all faucets working……dangled if there is not another water issue. Cannot figure how to fill the water tank. Again called the previous owners and they never filled it. Just used city water hookups. I have examined every inch of the outside of the RV and there is no water tank fill valve. In the wet bay there is a hookup for city water and directly below it another clearly labeled for flushing the waste tank. I saw pictures of Intruders - Some with clear outside hookups and some not. Read several people talked about turning some valve on the city water to tank fill. But my connection does not have that option either. Read the owners manual and it tells me nothing. This is getting really annoying with this RV. Something so simple as filling a tank. I have owned several RV,s and never had these kinds of issues. Driving me nuts and it is a dang short trip.Re: De-winterizng an RVWell, as it turns out, I did contact the previous owner who has been so helpful. Turns out he never used a bypass. He blew out all the lines and put RV anti-freeze in the traps and toilet. So got the water working in kitchen and bathroom. Now, apparently the fresh water level sensor is not working as we have been filling the tank for 20 minutes and it is still showing empty. And one of the two low drain valves is dripping pretty good. So little by little, we are getting there. Might be able to actually use this RV soon. LolRe: De-winterizng an RVOk….time to admit I am dumb! Took me forever to figure out the bypass valve was nowhere on the water heater…..or at least the part on the outside of the RV. Now next stumbling block. It is apparently behind a panel in the bedroom under a closet and drawer. Even has a notice on it saying to remove the panel to get access to the water heater. How nice. Except the panel has no hinges, no pulls, no screws or any way to remove it except for somehow prying it off. My luck I would try that and destroy the panel or the frame around it. Someone tell me why I was dumb enough to buy another motor home! Is there a secret in a “guys only” manual that tells how to do this stuff? The one I am with is suffering from some mental decline and is no help at all. Figured getting an RV would be good for him to get out and enjoy before his mind is too far gone. So far have not made it out of the yard! ??????Re: De-winterizng an RVThere is a big bottle of pink RV antifreeze liquid that came with the RV. I will check again and see if that is what came with the RV. Previous owner had used the RV for years so I suspect all should be good. Thanks for the detailed instructions. I will follow them tomorrow. And let ya know how I make out.De-winterizng an RVJust got a used RV. It has been in storage for sometime and all water was blown out and then everything shut down for the winter. There is some red stuff in the toilet. That is what I know. Can someone point me to a good video or explanation of how to get the water back on? I saw something on a website before about sanitizing the tanks. But right now the RV is in the side yard and I do not want to flood it with water. Best option would be to do all this in an RV park where everything goes down the drain…..but temporarily the RV cannot be moved, so side yard it is. Any help will be much appreciated.
