Title: Engine access hatch
Post by: Andy Riess on October 22, 2018, 02:56:49 PM

Good Morning,

I need to get the engine hatch on my 2003 Contessa open. From the looks of things it's never been open. I can kinda figure where it is. A rectangle in front of the bedroom closet. I figured then rather then just ripping stuff apart like I usually do I would see if anyone has opened this and if so where are the screws or whatever holds the hatch in place a are located.
Thanks for any help. This forum is a great source of money saving advice. Thanks again!

Our hatch cover is a rectangular shape between the bed and wardrobe closet.  The cover has four latches.  Each latch has a button to push which should release the latch.  Push the buttons and raise the latches to release the cover from the floor.
