Quick HWH Question 2000 FDS

Dumb question....
Does anyone know where the HWH control module is located on our 2000 FDS36? (HWH 610 series) I've looked everywhere (well obviously not) and can't locate it. Not having any issues, but inquiring minds need to know just in case. Places I've looked are in the basement, in the enclosure near the fresh water dump valve, under the dash, under the fridge, near the inverter, in the wet bay, near the generator, engine compartment, HWH pump compartment etc...
I had a mouse issue and have had every compartment, drawer, cabinet, nook and cranny open or apart. I figured I'd find the control module in the process. Nope.
The manual shows one module for air dump/leveling legs and one for the slide.
Thanks in advance, Mike.

I'll look in there again, maybe I'm blind.
Thanks

Update, no its not there. A few inline atc style fuses. All solenoid wiring exits the compartment into never never land.
Nothing under the HWH pump compartment either.

HWH

Located under dash right in front of HWH pull out controls. Pull off the the panel that hides the fuse panels and look to the left. Should be laying on the floor.
Watch out for the mice jumping out

Thanks Gary!
I found them, but you have to remove the panel that covers the blower motor to see or access them. They're not visible with just the fuse kick panel removed! Laying on the floor right where you said they would be! Funny I never saw them when I replaced the in dash stereo unit or heater valve cable. Good news, no mice!
Pretty sure those little buggers were courtesy of our Libby Montana trip this spring. CG owners warned us.
Nothing serious, but wife a little freaked out when she found turds in the silverware drawer.
Pro Tip! Pure vanilla extract on the mouse traps works killer.
Thanks again!
Mike

Originally the hwh boxes were attached to inside firewall to the left of heater blower with Velcro straps. Later models they were moved to the bulkhead in front of fresh water tank behind the carpet protector for fresh water dump valve

dash

We have the early dash which is a little bit easier to remove the HWH unit. Used to help a friend with the newer/later dash and not much room.

By the way THANK YOU for your/others input about the brakes.
Last year replaced Rotors, calipers and pads. This was after the left rear caliper stuck. NAPA, in Orange, gave us the best deal for the parts.
Back in 2003 we had the original problem calipers and they were replaced under warranty at the factory.

We have had mice 3-4 times and thankfully no damage just clean up.

Gary

Hard to find a coach that stops any better than an Alpine with good brakes. When I first purchased ours I thought the four wheel discs were marginal at best. Well they were, with all the slides sticking and a few caliper pistons frozen up. After I replaced everything front and rear I was thinking meh, they're just ok. After a few hundred miles of breaking/burnishing them in, gotta say I'm very impressed with their performance.
