2006 Imperial - Where is HWH Control Box?

I need to adjust the level sensor but the HWH Control Box, where the sensor is usually located, is not in the Fwd Run Bay like it was on my previous Monaco. Before I start the hunt, maybe someone can save me some time by pointing me to the right location/cargo bay ceiling/????

Stuart, I have no idea on your coach, but on ours it is in the rear equipment bay where the water pump, inverter, water manifold, etc. is located.

Thanks Joe. I know mine is not there.

First bay would be my 'first' guess.

Mine, IIRC, is in the basement, rear curb side bay (so about mid-ship) on the ceiling. It is a small box, with an arrow that says "Forward".

What series HWH ?


When helping a friend with a 625 series , we had to track down the main box by following the wiring harness from the pump/solenoids.

Mine is also on the DS bay ceiling but concealed by a removable carpeted cover

Mine is in the front. It is on the passenger side “firewall”. Can see it once the generator slide is open.

Nehog and Falconman are probably right. It will be mounted to the bottom of a rigid, horizontal, flat surface, like the bottom of the coach floor (i.e. the ceiling of a storage bay). Ours is in the first basement bay from the front, excluding the fuel bay. It is between the frame rails, and like Falconman's, there is a carpeted cover, about 10" x 16" with a twist knob to gain access.

HWH has TWO control boxes on many of these coaches. The one in the generator compartment is USUALLY for the slide-out system. The one in the basement "attic" IS for the leveling system.

Please go to the HWH website and download the service manual for your system. I learned the hard way that tweaking the level settings will take you some time. It's a "try it and see how it works out" process. If your coach is like ours, every half hour or so, it checks and re-levels. What you get on the first attempt may not be where it ultimately is happy.

There is a small card in that box, and a concentric pair of adjustment "nuts". One tips the little board up and down in the fore and aft axis, and the other rotates it left and right, on the lateral axis. Tiny, tiny, tiny adjustments make a big difference. GOOD LUCK!!!

You, along with Nehog, Falconman and Mhcorrigan, nailed this one. I received a PM from a member with the exact coach I have and he tells me that his in in the front cargo bay ceiling behind a carpeted removable cover, just as you describe.

I did print out the appropriate service manual page from HWH. I need to also replace my system pump so it maintains level. It is dead, dead, dead.
Will probably go with a ViAir 380C constant duty pump.
