fresh water overflow
2002 Montana - bought used - Where is/was the original fresh water overflow located?
According to "Keystone RV help" - the small screened outlet in the "fill" box is the fresh water vent. However, this "vent" is where the fresh water is overflowing when the tank is full on my camper.

The access panel on the left (driver's side) rear corner contains three things. The connection for shore supplied water, an access port to fill the fresh water tank, and the small screened outlet that allows air to escape as the fresh water tank fills. When the fresh water tank is full, you will see water coming out of this orifice.

My 2016 5th wheel it's on the Driver's side rear, a black horseshoe shaped cover.

I believe on that 2002 fifth wheel the access door contains the fill port ,and vent ,the fresh water connection is just to the left of the door by itself. The 2008 I had the access door is the same fill port ,and vent ,but the fresh water connection is in the basement convenience center .
OP , your overflow is the vent ,and the fill port itself. if you continue to overfill leaving the hose in the fill port ,you will get water running out the vent as well as the fill port .

The overflow and the vent for the fresh water are the same.

On my unit "vent" and "overflow" are one and the same. I fill until I see water coming out.
