Hello all. Dumb question of the day, how do you open the hood on a 2008 Voyage 32H? I have searched the interior for a latch release, none to be found. I have run my fingers along every part of the grill and cannot find anything.
This is the first day I have seen the motorhome since purchasing it last month so please be kind with your response
I did a search on this forum but nothing for my 2008 Voyage.
Yes, I feel for you! WE all get caught in things that seem so simple. I just spent some time trying to figure out how much of a medicine to take for a headache!
I finally found I had tyo peel the label to access that info.
I'm not sure the med helped or finding the info made it worse!
Ignoring all that, I did some looking on the owners manuals and the parts listing andneither seem to help. If you have a big bag of info, there may be a chassis manual from that builder?
But I also doubt the right info it there because the folks who build the chassis are selling it stripped and THEN the top isput on. I'm surprised if that helps but may be better than my next best shot!
Winnebago often have a couple latches, one on either side of the moving hood part. My move for finding them is to cup my fingers as if lifting the normal car hood and run them left/right all along the edge unitl I may find a latch.
That latch is often a simple "handle" hanging down which moves a lever to unlatch.
Since the hood material is likely fiberglass and somewhat flexible, it can work to graps the edge and tug to see what spot moves less as it is that point which is latched?
It should be in the book as we might want to check little things like oil???
Sorry. I feel for you !

Thanks Richard, I was able to locate a small latch on both sides of the grill. It looked like they were part of the frame so I didn't think that was the latch! Now I can check the oil etc. and look to see why my low beam head lights don't work. Always something to do.
Good deal!
Just knowing they are there will make it better next time---even if we forget exactly where!
I know a fellow who got so tired of looking for it every time he had the oil changed that he stuck a piece of tape on the hood to spot as he KNEW the oil guy would never find it.
