Hi Hempie,
My '79 had the house batteries under the entrance step. There was a trap door that lifted up with the carpet attached.
Good luck,
Darrell Moore

hempie, my house batts are under the floor inside the door too. Here's a little diagram showing how they're wired in.

With a new purchase, it is good to get acquainted underneath. Slide around on your creeper and look things over. Follow the heavy cable from the genset and it will go to the coach battery. There is also probably a relay that has one cable going to the coach battery and one to the starting battery.
