Howdy!

I have been combing the operating manuals for my coach, just to figure out
what works and what doesn't, but I am left with a few questions. It appears
my coach has had the interior completely redone so I have having a hard time
figuring out what is stock and what isn't. :-) For the most part, the coach
seems to be in decent conditions, but it does have engine/transmission
leaks. So far everything appears to be fixable. My questions are more along
the lines of where "should" things be. :-)

1. The coach is registered as a Glenbrook, but I have found references
to an Elegenza II. Based on the TZE, can we confirm? I used the number to
confirm the color, but didn't find model.
2. I see references to a water input that is on the drivers rear at the
very back corner. This is different from the city water input further
towards the front. Mine is missing. I do have a water input by the propane.
Is this right?
3. When I put water in the water tank, it comes out what appears to be
a drain underneath the coach. Is there a plug? Or is there a valve inside
the coach? My plumbing doesn't seem to match the diagrams I have seen. Where
would the valve be?
4. Do most of the coaches have 2 water tanks?
5. Where is the valve normally located to empty the poop tank? I assume
it's gravity fed?
6. I am going to rebuild my Power Level airbag values but have seen
references to a re-engineered version? Anyone got a link?
7. The screws for my rear ladder supports at the top are missing. Not
sure if they got pulled out or just backed out. What should they be replaced
with?
8. By the circuit breaker panel in the cabinet, there is a switch and
an outlet. I replaced the power inverter and plugged it in. Is the switch
for the hot water heater?
9. When in the garage or at a camp site with power, what is the best
option to run the lights inside? My lights inside the galley etc appear to
be DC 12v. When I am plugged in, are those lights running off the AC cord,
or the DC battery? What are the best practices? If so, do I have to run the
generator to power those lights?

Thanks for the time and the question responses. Right now, we are just
trying to check out all the systems and get a better understanding of
operation then we can fix the high priority items on the list and then go
forward from there.
