Water leaks
#1

I have coach 751 2005 year model
Water damage on floor in passenger slide at corner if facing on right side. Also water damage on galley floor adjacent to the damage on the slide floor. Don't know if windows are leaking above damage or may be caused by slide seal leak if possible. Or leaking elsewhere and ending where floor is wet and rotting. Removed carpet to install ceramic wood like flooring. any suggestion where the water is leaking in will be appreciated or any remedies suggested. Thank you

Check the seam on the top of the slide.  I have had to reseal a couple of mine.

Thanks Terry will check and let you know results.

This is a “for what it is worth” thought.  The track that holds the slide seal leaves a little space between it and the skin of the coach.  Water can collect there and migrate inside.  This may be the cause..   later models started using a horizontal slit in the skin of the coach in that area to direct water away.  Maybe someone with a later model could display the slit.

Thanks Gordon these are exactly the suggestions I am searching. I will check the seal for water seepage, along with the seam at top of slide out. Any other suggested trouble spots to check are greatly appreciated from all.

If you have an exterior yard light…check it. The gasket material ages and will allow a leak.
