Another water pump location question 2015 Rezerve 27bh

Some aspect of our water pump or its plumbing is making a lot of noise whenever it kicks on and pumps. Something is loose and shaking. Also there seems to be air getting into the lines and making the flow out of the faucets a bit of a mess.

Before I start pulling stuff apart to find the issues, can anyone point to where the water pump is actually located? I was about to pull off the underbelly and go looking but I'm going to have to take off the scissor jacks and move a gas line to get to that section. I'm hoping it's actually easier to get to than that.

You should be able to track it down by listening for the sound when you have it running.

This old hidden water pump issue. This is a much talked about item on lots of boards. Like Loyd said, listen for the pump when turned on and it is probably behind a access panel or moveable wall in the storage area in the belly. I had to remove 4 screws to get to mine every fall when winterizing in my 5th wheel.

Yeah, the sounds seemed to be coming from all throughout the camper. I did find it underneath the stove behind the access panel. I've made it quieter, but the next step is to get to the source of the issue, which I believe is air getting into the lines in the vacuum of the lines before the pump.

Some water pumps have a valve in the suction side to either draw water from the tank or antifreeze from a jug. could be the valve - if you have one is not fully turned to draw from the tank. Just something to check.

Thanks for that suggestion
My setup has this but it isn't part of the pump itself. I checked and no air is getting in through the winterization hose and the valve is fully closed. I believe the pump is the problem. I've ordered a new pump.
