Rattle in A/C Vent

We are on our first week of camping in our new 3611RL. There is a rattle in one of the A/C vents. Is it easy to get the vent cover off and if so how do you do it? Thanks!

Just pull down. I had a friend with a rattle in his A/C vents to the very rear of his fiver.(3160) I ended up removing the roof A/C and tilting it so I could look inside the supply and return vents ... wires laying haphazardly vibrating on the return duct floor. Taped and wire tied them up ... no more rattles.

Is the rattle in the intake vents or in the outgoing vents running along the ceiling?

John pulled the vent cover off and pulled out a piece of duct work they cut for the vent and left up there. All is now quiet. Yessiree, quality control.
