Hot Water Pressure

We have a 2016 Fleetwood Pace Arrow 38k. Our issue is the Hot Water pressure ia low. The Water Heater works great but when turning on the hot water (especially in the shower), the water pressure is seeems really low and the water pump seems to be trying to pump harder than normal. I have read on other post there can be a one way check valve located near the fresh water tank that can be a problem. Can anyone tell me where to find the check valve? Or any other auggestions you may have.

First after making sure the water heater bypass valves are correctly positioned - locate the pump. The check valve is generally always in either on the inlet or discharge of the pump.

Sometimes, there can be a check valve used as a part of the bypass system and is screwed into the water heater tank discharge port.
