How do I removed the floor panels in the bedroom? There is one on the step up into the closet and another one in the closet. These would make getting to the engine compartment easier.

Thanks!

I think you are going to have to remove the closest doors to gain access. I did with my 2005 Inspire.

You will have to remove doors and bottom track

John,
I am not sure if I understand your question because you did not mention an engine cover hatch. However, I had a 2003 40 foot tag axle Allure with a Cummins 370 engine. To gain access to the engine compartment from the bedroom I only had to lift the bed, support it to make sure it did not come down on my head and then unlatch the engine cover and carefully lift it out of the way. That engine cover was part of the step up to the closet. BTW, the engine cover is quite heavy so you may need some assistance.

As far as I know the closet in my Allure did not have an access cover to the engine compartment. It did have a large carpeted box on the drives side corner of the closet that covered the electric shore cord. I never attempted to remove it so I have no experience there.
