Low side Air Conditioner port to add R134 Refrigerant

Could someone please tell me where the R134R low side fill port is for a 2017 Thor Vegas 24.1 and maybe provide a picture? I was told it's located near firewall, but I haven't located yet. My chassis air is low on refrigerant. I am trying to add enough refrigerant to make it home until a permanent fix. Thanks

I have a 2016 Vegas. Is in area just back and above oil fill on mine. Shorter guys will have hard time. Is tight area so pix tough. Be carefull not to accidently knock wires on anything loose. You will see blue cap pointing to drivers side.

I have a 2018 Vegas 25.3 on the E-450 Chassis. May be similar to yours. The Low side port is located above the Trans. dipstick, just left of center. Also, the high side port is located in the upper left, coming out of the receiver dryer. I will try to include pictures of both.

Thor mounted mine under an engine cross brace, so it's hidden and difficult to access. Poor workmanship!

Wait till you have to change any of your A/c parts like the receiver/drier or expansion valve, I took my Tuscany out the other day and no engine air, it had the exact amount of Freon 2.5 lbs but the expansion valve was iced over. I spent 2 days finding the expansion valve and drier, as mine is on a freightliner chassis that’s were I went first and was told it was a Thor installed part, called Thor and was told that a company called pro air did the install of that a/c system, finally tracked done the parts the expansion valve is a tbd2g part number which crosses to to rv219535 evans tempcon part and the drier had rv011245 crosses to rv218337 .
