I'd like to check and, if needed, top off the glycol in my 320S. Where is the tank and how do I access it?

    Tank is located on drivers side, behind/below speaker. There is a panel next to the flip up cubby. Two square head screws an the panel comes off exposing the reservoir.

    Here is a thread with photos of the T@b being built that might help you out: https://tab-rv.vanillacommunity.com/discussion/7276/t-b-320-factory-photos-showing-locations-of-items-before-hidden-in-walls

    Similarly, on the 2019 T@b 400 I can see the glycol level but not any access to fill it.   Do I need to unscrew a panel to get to it?

    Yes, unscrew the plastic panel, or just loosen the screws and slide the cover off. I also remove the plywood piece above the panel to give me more room.

    If needed, I pour glycol into a 20 oz soft drink bottle and then it’s easier to pour the contents of the smaller bottle into the reservoir. A funnel dedicated to only glycol comes in handy, too.

    You don't need to remove the gray plastic panel that sets lower down.  You WILL need to remove the wooden panel with the inspection cutout that surrounds the reservoir.  Getting it back in place is the trick.  You want to try to get the screws into the same holes in the walls or you will end up with a lot of holes after a few top-offs.  Those holes will also wallow out after a few times and the screws won't hold anymore.  Very poor design.

    Thank you these images helped. I attempted to remove my panel but felt like I couldn't get it out from the framing. Now I see the piece of framing comes with it. I must not have unscrewed in far enough.

    @suram, I didn't mention it in my earlier post, but once the screws are removed, slide the panel toward the front end of the trailer.  

    P.S. @Sharon_is_SAM, I apologize for not properly sizing my photos above.  I thought I had, but I just checked and see that I set them at 1200 x 800.  Anyway, thank you for doing that.  (Greg)
