29.2 shower pan access

[rvquest]

Anyone know how to access the bottom of the shower pan in the 29.2? I looked at the rear wheels like some models have as well as the storage compartment under the bathroom with no luck so far. Id like to reinforce on of the corners where it is soft.

They usually put a small access plate screwed onto the wall on the same side as the shower drain. Look in the bedroom wall. If there is not one, you could always (if space allows) cut one in on the bedroom wall. The wall material is VERY thin and cuts easy with a utility knife. The photos below is how I did mine. The access door in the bathroom is a joke, it's so small. I bought the panel from Amazon (very cheap)

Unfortunately the drain is near the exterior wall in ours.

Check to see if it located in the rear passenger wheel well or the bay in front of the wheel....
if you do not see it then they might not have cut it out.....
my drain leaked due to the flex of the floor and the pipe was hard lined in ...once i put a slip joint in i have no more leaks .
also if your shower floor is sponge by the drain you might want to add one of these.

That's why I suggested that if there is no access panel to make one going through the bedroom wall and create one. (If possible)
Sounds scary but as long as there is no electrical in the way it should be easy. The panel I used is 12 x 12

Ill check that out. The bedroom is raised but so is the shower pan so I need to figure out if they align properly. I will also get some pictures of the storage compartment under the bathroom to see if anyone recognizes the factory access.

Well, I found it! It is above the passenger side rear tire on mine too. I just wasn't getting in there deep enough to see it
