Central Vacuum

[mrdonut12]

Phil,
Well, THAT changes everything. ;o)
Mine is behind the stepwell cover (when it's up) and mounted in
the side of the cabinet to the right of the entry door. The switch is
right next to it.
I think I disconnected the power wire at the switch and fed the
wire back into the vacuum to get the vacuum out. If I remember right,
I also had to disconnect the (vacuum) exhaust air piece. The air from
the vacuum exhausts out the coach floor into the propane tank area.
So, you're probably caught up with the power wire and exhaust
plumbing. It wasn't that easy for me to figure out, either, and I'm a
car mechanic. LOL
