Where's the water pump?

[Slipper]

I have a 2016 Cougar 24SABWE (just purchased). However, I can't locate the water pump. I can hear it. I can feel vibrations on the outside wall of the trailer, towards the front, near the bedroom but I can't actually find the pump. Any ideas where it might be? Do I access it from under the trailer, or from inside the camper? I guess it must be readily accessible for winterizing. Also, the camper came with a spare water filter, so I assume I don't need to take too much of the camper apart to replace the filter (I assume that's located near the pump?). Thanks for any help.

Driver side left of bed. You open bed and remove screws in carpet and wiggle carpeted board out. Our dealer cut ours fo us so we don't have to open bed to get at it.

Two ways to tell. Look outside and locate your fresh water fill. The water pump will be inside the trailer close to that fill line. Or turn on the pump and locate where the sound is coming from. Pump will likely be located behind an access panel that will require you to remove a couple of screws.
Look at the water filter. Is it blue, cylindrical, about a foot long with a male threaded connector on one end and a female connector on the other? If so, then it attaches to the hose you use for fresh water.

Here you go. See picture.

Galley dump valve location just rear of slide. Two grey tanks and one black.

Thanks Wyldfire. I suspect they changed things for the 2017 model. I think my galley tank is meant to be to the rear of the slide, but it's good to know there are meant to be two grey tank handles (somewhere).

Rear of the slide is where mine is. The other to are on the other side of the slide. Under your second grey sticker inside the frame rail it comes out of the coroplast
You almost have to lay down by the tires to see it

Good. Same as mine then. Now for the fun of trying to thread a new rod and handle into the grey gate valve!

By the way I have never put the screws back in the water pump board and has never moved
