    297RSTS Bracket

    I just purchased a 2020,297RSTS. There is a bracket in the storage bay under the battery disconnect switch. What is it used for? There is also 3 sets of keys. 1 set fits the door locks, 1 set fits the storage bay locks. What is the third key for?

    Sorry I can't help with what the bracket is for. I don't recall a bracket there on my 2018 297RSTS. The third key is for the outdoor entertainment door lock with the TV in it.

    The bracket is there to hook your dog leash to. At least that's what I was told, lol

    My 2017 doesn’t have a bracket in that location either. Could it be for a tv mount? There should be a cable hook up down there. Mine is on the left wall (interior) though. A pic would be cool.

    This was told to us also by a GD rep at the Fall 2019 Dallas RV show, where we ended up purchasing our rig. Regards

    Okay, so it sounds like a tie out for a dog. Interesting...

    I have found out since the original post that the key does not fit any lock on the 2020's. The key was for the outside TV compartment on the 2019 and earlier. The rep indicated that the keys were added to the keys as a matter of habit by someone at the factory. The answers for the bracket are correct. It is for hooking a dog leash

    I have a pre-update 2020 297RSTS and can't believe the updated 2020 got rid of the outside TV and drawers.

    The bracket seems to open bottles very well.
