Access to engine

[sforl]

Can someone tell me how to open the engine compartment on my Axis? I've unlocked both locks but it won't open! It should pull out and lower down correct?
I think I've found my problem with the AC! There's a hose hanging down under the drivers side dash! I think this is probably for the AC!

On our Axis I pull it a little at the top, but then have to reach down and pull out & down from the bottom of the grill to get it to open.

Thanks ! I finally got it open! It was very stiff so I greased it!
Unfortunately the hose hanging down was not the solution to my AC problems but I'm confused about its purpose! It's a large corrugated hose. Maybe it's for floor heat???

Sounds like a duct hose for the defroster.... The clamp must have come loose.

Axis earl- There doesn't appear to be anything to attach it to. It extends 4-5 inches and is directed towards the floor!
Strange!

I have one of those hoses. Try running dash heat and see if it isn't the footwell vent.

Tom Bowe Its reassuring to know that your MH has this also! I think it's for floor heat!
