What happens if you put a cover over the bathroom heat register? Do the other registers have warm air? If not you've got disconnected heat ducts.

You usually have the plenum behind the furnace (ours in under the frig) and it is accesses through the cold air return. The only cross coach heat duct is to the bathroom and wet bay.

stonycreek - yep. I am very adverse to paying $125/hour to have someone to learn how to find a problem - let alone fix it. I spent a number of years in an Army motor pool in a number of capacities and learned how to troubleshoot. Most times problems is fairly obvious.

Look in the coach basement and feel for some fairly warm air.

Also, give Thor a call. The tech support folks have been very helpful. They probably have a chart/diagram of ducting layout.

If you don't hear from them early on Monday, give them a call. The CSRs you'll talk with can generally give the design folks a call and get you the diagrams/schematics. Last time I called I had a lady (first time I had a female CSR out of many calls) and she was super. Sent me the wiring diagrams, waited while I measured voltage and gave me design specs. REALLY helpful - Andrea Hans. But all the CSRs I spoken to, have been very helpful.

We had a similar problem on our new Thor Miramar. I pulled a drawer in our kitchen to see the furnace ad found the vent hose was off. Re installed it and tightened it up. No more issues.
Good luck.

Simple fix...disconnect roof and raise one side about 2 feet. Remove full-wall slide. Disconnect entire side panel of the coach and lean it out about 3 feet. This should give you easy access to the furnace and heat ducts.
