Furnace

Does anyone know how to access the propane furnace on a 1999 bounder?

I need to lube the fan on the blower. Squalls very loud for the first few minutes when running.

Bearings need to be oiled but I cannot get to the blower from the outside.

I removed all the screws on the cover but the cover would not come off.

I am going to try to access it from the inside next.

What type of furnace is it? Some come out the side of the RV, others must be removed from the inside. All the time and effort to remove and lube the fan motor bearings will have to be repeated with more frequency, it's often better to just replace the motor. If you look up the brand and model number, there's probably a manual and perhaps a YouTube video on it.

BFlinn,

I will dig out the paperwork on it today. It does have a panel on the exterior of the coach. I removed all the screws and it did not want to budge.

Must be fastened somewhere inside the coach also. There is access via the return air vent. However it is located under the stove and the furnace is located under the refrigerator to the right.

I plan on removing the return air grille and see if there is access at least to the blower motor.

Thanks.
