On further inspection, the air leak noise is occurring in the center wiring trough above the water tanks. I can't see it, but it's above where plumbing is. In order to get further in, I'm going to have to take out the Aqua Heat overflow tank and the water softener. Then I should be able to see the area. I'm hoping the air line is on the outside and not buried in the middle of all the wires and tubing in that trough.

Do you have a mid coach water closet? If so... suspect the toilet. I had an air leak right there that turned out to be my toilet.

On my '98 I couldn't hear an air leak until I bought an air leak detector. I put it in each basement compartment until I found the culprit. There was a coiled up section of 1/4" tubing with a nipple and plug in the end. The plug was leaking, cleaned up the threads, put some new teflon tape on it, tightened it and no more leaks. Not sure what the tubing was for since it was just coiled up and stuck in the bundle of wires up in the middle. So your leak could be anything from factory to a previous owner.

Thanks, I'll check the toilet as well. There isn't noise inside the coach.
