I have a 2009 35 RLTS and I'm starting to winterize for winter. I opened the low point valves on the front of fifth wheel and water drained out. When I went to look for the low point valves on the middle of the Fifth wheel I could not find them anybody know were the valves are ? also when I opened the the valve on the back low point valve no water came out is this normal or I'M I doing something wrong.

Most RVs have only a single set of low point drains. Hard to have two lowest points in the system.

I've only ever heard of one set of valves too. I'd call the dealer's service guy. He will know. (What make/model is it?)

I think the one you found in the rear is the fresh water tank drain. That wouldn''t have water unless you filled it. Make sure you open all of your faucets when you open the low points. Also remove the under sink filter if that didn't go away in 09. Also don't forget the water heater.
I would also recommend blowing the lines out with air if you are not using antifreeze.

The 2009 RLTS has three low point drains. The one in the middle of the coach is actually located on the ceiling of your basement. There are two valves located there and of couse one valve in front and one in the rear of the unit. Hope this helps.

The reason for the 2 sets of valves up front is that one goes to washer/dryer, and the other does rest of lines. As CHV_FRK said, the one in back is for fresh water tank. Winterized mine today, used air, put some anti-freze in traps and ran a little through pump.
