how do I access the chassis batteries on a 40' 2002 U320?
On my 01 they were underneath on the drivers side in the rear by the engine on my previous 2000 and 1999 they were on the passenger side. The chassis batteries are going to be near the engine on one side or the other.
On mine, they are behind the door just forward of the radiator on the passenger side.

If you have a tag axle then open the driver's side rear most louvered panel and look for the battery rack next to the engine. Without a tag then they are probably behind the narrow door just behind the drive wheels on the passenger's side.
Thanks for the info. I do have a tag and have looked behind the rear most drivers side louvered panel. The batteries are located in front of the engine however access to the batteries appear to be only from under the coach could that be right?
When we replaced the batteries recently we had to take the exhaust pipe off.

Would not surprise me.
Easy access to batteries was apparently not a high priority item when the coaches were designed.
Which is why almost all owners favor some type of
maintenance-free batteries.
On that year coach Yes. A shallow pit is a great help along with a hydraulic table to slid them off on and let them down.

Fore travel weighs the same on both sides fairly closely. Requires heavy things to be in certain locations
