Water Heater Bypass on 2015 361TG

My water heater bypass started leaking when in the ON position. Water pours out the bottom of the trailer. Dropped the Coroplast but cannot see the valve. Any suggestions on the best way to access it. 2015 361TG, fist time posting.

Is the plug or anode rod in place at the outside part of the wh?

How do you know it's the bypass? The bypass valve will be on the back of the water heater which is above the floor.

Yes. The water heat is on the opposite side of the trailer. The bypass valve is mounted behind the wall in the water hook up bay and has a handle through the wall, turns a quarter turn.

If the bypass switch is in the convienence center, the hoses will be directly behind that panel. You may need to remove the rear wall of the storage compartment to access and trace the lines.
