Question:

Where is the hot water heater element located on a 2004 jaco jayfeather 27p. I believe it is a Atwood brand water heater. It is an electric/gas unit .thanks

There should be a panel on the outside of your 2004 Jayco Jayfeather 27P on the back passenger side of the RV that you can open and see the water heater. I don't have a way to know for sure what water heater you have but in general the element is near the center and towards the bottom of the water heater. A lot of times it's behind a gas pipe fitting or two as well.

I attached a picture that points out the area on a similar Atwood water heater since I don't know which exact model you have.
