I'm hoping to see a picture of a stock U270 utility panel (where the shore power, city waterfill, and sewer hook ups are) in a 1999 or thereabouts U270. Pretty much done with the lower half of the panel that has the power, waterfill, sewer etc., but my old top-half fiberglass panel has a number of cutouts that I don't recognize. I know there was a telephone jack, cable outlets, AC outlets, and maybe a vent for the compartment heat? Anyway, last time I posted a request for pictures Mark, came through for me big time! I think when her coach was new, there also used to be a voltage gauge and maybe a polarity checker for the shore power, but that wasn't there when we bought the coach. I just want to see the arrangements so I can figure out how I'm going to rearrange things to fit in the new configuration.
Thanks, Don
Don,
Hope this is helpful.

Thanks again Mark! I take it that that single gang cover plate with the two flip open covers is for the cable TV and telephone? Also, what is that valve assembly above and to the right? Is that a tank flush? Now after seeing that picture, I have bus door envy! I have never seen a U270 with the bus style compartment doors... was that optioned when new? My head would be a lot less lumpy if had those on our coach... probably be smarter too ;D also, I see that you have the camlock style waste master sewer hose. How do you like it? Seems like a good idea to me...

Don,
Those valves are for tank flushing and you are correct about the cable and phone jacks too. As to the polychute hose I really love it because I never have to unhook the hose. It has a valve at the end if I want to back flush the black tank with the gray water. Having the valve also isolates any odors from the hose. I built a shelf so I could store the power cord above. Someone with hose reels would not have the space for that.
