Access to Fresh water tank on a 2022 R-27

[Tunnel Bound]

I cannot get water to flow from my fresh water tank on my R-27, 2022.​

My facts: I live in Alaska and when I went to drain the tank last fall nothing flowed and I convinced myself the tank was empty and the gauge was giving me a false reading.

I took off the filter (the plastic bowl adjacent to the pump) because the previous winter it froze and cracked and I decided to bypass it.

The tank is full of water (shouldn't be ice anymore because it has been a couple of months above freezing).

I cannot pull water with my mouth from the intake hose that goes to the pump. It feels impossible.

Is there a way to see the fresh water tank and chase the hose to the pump?

At the foot of the berth there is a wall with a Garmin box, am I trying to take down that wall or a piece near there lower on the left?
Or should I be trying to remove the refrigerator?

The cover on the left will give you access to the top of the tank to the gauge sensor and pump intake. I have a 2025 and what had happened was the top of the tank had ‘settled’ (collapsed a bit) so the intake tube was resting on the bottom of the tank and preventing flow. Not sure if this is the same in your case, but you can remove the intake tube and cut it a bit so it’s not resting on the bottom.
